Preparation
- Poke holes into the sweet potato and drizzle with 1 teaspoon of olive oil. If desired, sprinkle salt and pepper. Wrap in paper towels and microwave for about 8 minutes until very tender.
- Dice the jalapeno and mini peppers, removing seeds. Cook the peppers in a large pan until tender, about 5-7 minutes.
- Combine black beans, corn, and taco seasoning in the pan. Stir well and cook for another 3 minutes, then pour into a bowl and set aside.
- Spread butter over one side of each tortilla. On the other side, layer about 3 tablespoons of warm sweet potato.
- Mash half an avocado over the sweet potato layer. Top with about ¼ cup of the veggie and bean filling. Add a generous amount of cheese.
- Cook the quesadilla by placing the butter side down in a warm pan. Fry until golden brown and cheese melts, then fold in half.
- Repeat the process until all tortillas are filled and cooked. Slice into wedges and serve warm.
Optional Garnish
- Garnish with fresh cilantro before serving.
