This twist on a traditional mexican dish has changed my life:
Admittedly, I stole this idea from The Whole Life Natural Market in Machias, Maine. I couldn't tell you exactly what made up their combination of flavors for this dish, but I left there wanting to make it myself - IMMEDIATELY. If you're ever down in those parts, stop by and have one. You won't be disappointed. But, if you'd like to make them yourself, try this:
Cook up some sweet potato. I don't think the particulars matter, but I boiled mine.
Mince some red onion, garlic & cilantro, and add a can of black beans to the mix.
Throw a handful of raisons on there, I prefer the golden variety. (TRUST ME -- just DO IT)
Sprinkle some cheddar cheese (it doesn't take much) down on your warm tortilla on the stovetop, add sweet potato & black bean mix, top with a dash more cheese, grab another tortilla for the top, and brown on both sides. A dollop of sour cream and salsa on top, and you're good to go! Quick. Easy. Delish!
Holy yum.
Sounds delish, Katie, thanks for the recipe! Love you!
ReplyDeleteYou know the nasty item I would omit. Gram
ReplyDeleteThanks, Caitlin! xoxo.
ReplyDeleteYes, Gram -- cilantro. ;o) Other than that one thing, I bet you'd really enjoy these, though!
