 0.50 tsp Salt
 0.50 tsp Black pepper
 0.50 tsp Cayenne powder, optional
 796 ml No-salt-added diced tomatoes, drained
 540 ml Beans of your choice, rinsed and drained
 2 Sweet potato, peeled and diced into 1-cm cubes
 250 ml Frozen corn

 250 ml Water
 8 10-inch Whole Grain Whole Wheat Tortillas
 125 ml Sour cream

1

Cook rice per package instructions. Once cooked, set aside to cool.

2

Preheat oven to 400°F and line a roasting pan with parchment paper or aluminum foil. If using aluminum foil, grease lightly with oil.

3

Heat a large pot over medium heat. Add oil, onion and garlic. Cook for 2 minutes, or until the onions are translucent, stirring often with a spatula.

4

Stir in half of the paprika, chili powder, salt, pepper, cayenne powder (if using), diced tomatoes, canned beans, sweet potatoes, frozen corn, bell peppers and water into the pot.

5

Cover the pot with a lid and simmer over medium heat for about 10 minutes or until the sweet potatoes are fork-tender.

6

Remove the lid from the pot and continue to simmer for 5 more minutes, to evaporate out some of the remaining liquid.

7

Stir in the cooked rice and remove the pot from heat.

8

Assemble and roll each tortilla with 1⁄2 cup of the bean-and-rice mixture, 1-tbsp. sour cream, and
1 tbsp. of shredded cheese. Place seam-side-down onto the roasting pan.

9

Sprinkle the remaining cheese and paprika on top as garnish. Bake in the oven for approximately 10 minutes, or until tortillas are crisp, and the cheese is melted.
