INGREDIENTS

Tortillas (8 small tortillas will make 2 pies- 8 servings)

A small baking pan (a springform pan would work the best but I didn't have one)

Shredded cheese

Avocado

Salsa

1 small sweet potato

2 Tbsp Butter

2/3 cup nutritional yeast

1 Tbsp Cumin

1 tsp maple syrup

Salt to taste

1 Tbsp oil

1 can of black beans (rinsed and drained)

2 small Roma tomatoes (diced)

1 small onion (diced)

1 small sweet pepper (diced)

2 cloves of garlic (finely chopped)

1 Tbsp Cumin

1 Tbsp Chili powder

1 tsp smoked paprika

1 tsp oragano

Salt and pepper to taste

FOR THE CILANTRO LIME CREMA:

1/2 cup sour cream

1/2 tsp garlic powder

Juice of 1 lime

Small bunch of cilantro (chopped)

Stab with a fork or knife

Bake in the oven at 425 for about 45 mins (until soft)

Heat 1Tbsp oil in a large skillet. First add the onions and cook on medium heat until translucent. Add the garlic, red pepper, tomato, black beans and spices. Cook on medium for 10-15 min. Set aside.

Mix together the sour cream, lime juice, garlic powder, and cilantro. Set aside.

When the sweet potato is ready remove skin and mash with butter, nutritional yeast, cumin maple syrup and salt.

Spray your baking pan with cooking spray and start layering. Start with a tortilla, spread the sweet potato mash. Add a layer of the black bean mix and then sprinkle with cheese. Repeat this 2 more times and then finish with a final tortilla on top. Brush the top with oil to get it nice and crispy.

Let the pie set for about 6-7 min before you cut into it. Serve with the lime crema, avocado, salsa and lime.
