Sweet Potato And Black Bean Enchiladas - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    Filling
    1 (15 ounce) can black beans, rinsed, drained
    4 garlic cloves, minced
    1 fresh lime juice
    2 cups sweet potatoes, cooked, and diced
    1/2 cup mild green chili, roasted and chopped
    1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
    1/2 teaspoon chili powder
    salt
    black pepper
    2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
    Sauce
    1 - 1 1/2 cup mole, sauce (Mole Sauce (Chocolate Based))
    Assembly
    2 -4 tablespoons vegetable oil, as needed
    8 corn tortillas
    4 ounces low-fat monterey jack cheese, shredded
Preparation
    Preheat your oven to 350\u00b0F Choose a baking dish that would hold 8 rolled enchiladas.
    Using a mixing bowl, combine the drained black beans with minced garlic and lime juice. Toss to coat the beans and set aside. In a separate bowl combine the cooked sweet potatoes with the chopped green chiles; add the spices. Season with salt and pepper.
    Pour about 1/4 cup of the mole Sauce into the bottom of the baking dish.
    To assemble the enchiladas, grab a skillet and heat a dash of oil. Lightly cook the corn tortillas to soften them, one at a time, as you stuff each one.
    Lay the first hot tortilla in the sauced baking dish; wet it with the sauce. Spoon 1/8 of the sweet potato mixture down the center. Top with 1/8 of the black beans. Wrap and roll the tortilla to the end of the baking dish. Repeat for the remaining tortillas. Top with the rest of the sauce. Top with a sprinkle of shredded Monterey Jack cheese.
    Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until the enchiladas are piping hot and the sauce is bubbling around the edges.
