Start by preheating your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. While the oven is heating, prepare the sweet potatoes. Place them on a baking sheet, drizzle with a bit of olive oil, sprinkle some salt and pepper, and toss to coat evenly. Bake for about 20 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.
While the sweet potatoes are cooking, you can begin preparing the sauce. In a saucepan, combine the tomato sauce, chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, and vegetable broth. Let it simmer over medium heat for about 10 minutes.
Next, prepare the filling. In a skillet, sauté the onion and garlic until they are soft and fragrant. Add the black beans, cumin, and the cooked sweet potatoes. Stir everything together and season with salt and pepper.
Now, it's time to assemble the enchiladas. On each tortilla, spread a generous amount of the sweet potato and black bean mixture. Roll the tortilla tightly and place it seam-side down in a baking dish. Repeat this process until all the tortillas are filled and arranged in the dish.
Pour the sauce over the enchiladas, making sure each one is coated. Sprinkle the shredded cheese on top, then put the dish in the oven. Bake for 20 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Serve these Sweet Potato Black Bean Enchiladas with a side of avocado salad or some homemade salsa for an even more satisfying meal. If you have leftovers, they can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Just reheat in the oven before serving.
