Sweet Potato Black Bean Quesadillas
with Avocado Mojo
Chipotle morita powder is made by smoking ripe, red jalapenos, drying the chiles, and then grinding them to a fine powder. It has a medium-hot heat level and fruity, smokey flavor. We stir this flavorful chile powder into smashed black beans and sweet potatoes for a savory quesadilla filling. We pair this with a creamy, cooling avocado salsa, made with vegan sour cream and zippy, herby mojo verde sauce.

INSTRUCTIONS
Heat 1 tbsp vegetable oil in large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add sweet potato and cook until beginning to brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Add just half the chipotle morita, cumin, oregano, black beans, just half the mojo verde, ½ cup water, and a pinch of salt and pepper and stir to combine. Cover and simmer until sweet potato is tender, 8 to 12 minutes. Transfer to medium bowl and use back of fork to gently smash mixture until cohesive. Wipe skillet clean and reserve for step 3. (4-servings: use 2 tbsp vegetable oil, 1 cup water) (TIP: Add more chipotle morita if you prefer more spice.)
Combine avocado, remaining mojo verde, sour cream, and a pinch of salt and pepper in medium bowl. Mash with back of fork until smooth and set aside.
Heat 1 tsp vegetable oil in same skillet over medium heat. Add one tortilla and cook until pliable and warmed through, about 1 minute. Add filling to one side of tortilla, fold tortilla in half, and press gently to seal. Cook until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Repeat with remaining tortilla.
