Ingredients:
*Use your favorite veggies*
- 1 medium onion, diced

- 1 Tbsp taco seasoning
- 1 tsp jalapeno, diced, optional
- ½ cup black beans, rinsed and drained
- 1 large sweet potato baked until done but firm, diced

Directions:
Spray a medium saute pan with non-stick cooking spray. Add onion and saute over medium heat until clear. Add red pepper, taco seasoning, and jalapenos if using. Saute until peppers are tender. Add black beans and cook for an additional 5 minutes. Add sweet potato and corn and toss gently to combine.
Heat a medium saute pan over medium. Lightly spread butter over one side of the tortilla. Add about ¼ cup of the veggie/bean filling, then, if using, sprinkle a generous amount of cheese over top. Place the butter side of the tortilla down on the warm pan and cook over medium heat until tortilla is browned and cheese is melted. Carefully fold tortilla in half on to itself using the spatula. Repeat until all tortillas are filled and cooked. Slice and serve warm.
