Eat Good Food..Specifically Enchiladas

Brilliant Black Bean, Sweet Potato and Zucchini Enchiladas
Makes 8-10 Enchiladas..good for 2-3 people and some leftovers for lunch!


Ingredients
1 sweet potato (cook on 400 degrees until finished/35-40 minutes? I never time anything so do what you want)
Small diced onion
2 cloves diced garlic
Diced zucchini
1/4 tsp chili pepper
Black beans drained and rinsed
1/4 Cup green chilies
Sliced avocado (to top)
Cooked Brown Rice
Soft shell corn taco shells
Enchilada sauce (from Mexico, well the grocery store, but made in Mexico..I have not perfected homemade sauce..don't judge)



How to make magic:
Get that brown rice going on the stove or in a rice cooker, it takes at least 35 minutes. Really pressed for time or just lazy? Pick up pre cooked brown rice in the Trader Joe's frozen aisle..I won't tell.

Here we go: In a saucepan on medium sautee garlic, onions and zucchini in olive oil with salt and pepper. Stir in black beans. Add chili powder and chilies to the now yummy black beans. Finely dice that cooled sweet potato and add into amazingly healthy and tasty veggie mix (Not looking to burn your hands? Then slow down and let the orange tuber cool). Cook it all on low for a few to make sure it's all mixed up and getting along.

Set oven and 375
In a baking pan or something add a little of the enchilada sauce to the bottom. Take a corn tortilla and place it on the sauce. Spoon in the black bean and sweet potato mixture and rolling it up. Don't fill that shell too full or the thing will bust or won't close...and you'll cry. Continue rolling these babies up until A) You run out of space in the pan B) You run out of shells C) You run out of mix.
Take the remaining enchilada sauce and douse the rolled up enchiladas.

Bake for for 15 minutes or so. If you are a cheese eater top with some shredded stuff and let it melt in for a few.

Plate a couple- 2, 3 up, top with avocado and side it up with some brown rice! A good way to get some more calories and protein would to also top with some 2% or Total Greek Yogurt (Fage of course!). Waaaaayyy better nutritionally than sour cream and the 15-20g of protein is killer for us CF peeps!

Enjoy!
