    Very good! I put a thin slice of ham on each tortilla before adding the sweet potato and beans and used farmer cheese instead of Laughing Cow. Microwave the sweet potato on high for 8 minutes rather than baking to save time. Tried a second batch adding spinach, rice, and cheddar. Yum! - 1/10/08

    Try adding avocado - I LOVE avocado! It adds to the creamy texture and gives you so many good health benefits. :) - 3/16/07

    Really good! I doubled it just to use the whole potato so my husband had a snack after work and he LOVED them. I didn't have any pepper flakes, so I left them out, and used less cheese to reduce a few calories there. Great recipe!! - 4/20/07

    I order this dish at a resturant, but didn't have the recipe. This is very close to what I had except I left off the Laughing Cow cheese and added collards to the sweet potatoes and beans. Added a Salsa...I used the Verde (green) as a dipping sauce only 5 calories for 2 Tbps YUM Thanks. - 4/28/13

    I tweaked this recipe very slightly using low fat/fat free items as available. I used Lavash Oat bran/flax seed wraps. This was very good, very filling! It's a keeper. - 4/11/13

    I loved this meal! Easy enough to make-even if you make slight alterations to the amounts it still tastes amazing. I didn't have garlic cloves so I used garlic powder-I will say that there was quite a bit of onion, so I'll probably reduce that in the next iteration. - 3/7/13

    Fantastic!! Never would have guessed black beans with sweet potato -added a little extra hot sauce and used fat free cream cheese vs. laughing cow. Perfect! Make extra - you'll want more! - 9/12/12

    My wife and I love this recipe, we add different stuff all the time, mushrooms, zucchini and I see someone else tried avocado, sounds great to me. We usually boil the sweet potatoes and can't seem to notice a difference in taste or texture. Thanks for this recipe - 6/12/12

    Curious... The tortilla isn't listed in the ingredients, is it calculated in the calories? - 2/14/12

    Pretty good. Not very pretty, but fairly tasty. I added shredded roasted chicken to mine and used fat free cream cheese. Plus some salsa because i need a bit more flavor. - 1/23/12
