The addition of black beans makes this dish a good choice for vegetarians because it’s high in protein and the caramelized onion with the sweet potatoes takes on a superb flavor. You can make the dish even healthier by substituting whole wheat flour tortillas.

2 teaspoons	sugar
3 cups	fresh sweet potatoes baked and cut into chunks or 2 (15oz.) cans sweet potatoes, drained and cut into chunks
