Ingredients
2 serving Yam - large baked (by BJBEAR73) 1 cup, chopped Onions, raw .5 cup, chopped Green Peppers (bell peppers) 5 clove Garlic 2 tsp Paprika .25 tsp Pepper, red or cayenne 1 cup Bush's, Black Beans 12 tortilla, medium (approx 6" di Flour Tortillas 1 package Ortega Enchilada Sauce 2.5 cup Sargento Classic Sharp Cheddar Fancy Shredded Natural Cheddar Cheese
Directions
Poke a few holes in the yams and bake them at 400 degrees for 1 hour.
Sauté the onion, peppers, and garlic. Add the paprika and cayenne, and salt if using. When the yams are soft, peel them. Put them and the onions & peppers in a large bowl and mash them up. Drain the beans and add them.
Put a few large spoonfuls on a tortilla, roll it up, and put it in a lasagna pan.
Pour the enchilada sauce all over them so they’re swimming in it. Shred the cheese and sprinkle it on top.
Bake at 350 for 20-30 minutes (20 min if the contents are still warm from before).
This is not that spicy. You could probably double the cayenne safely. We’ve also used some cumin, sometimes.
