INGREDIENTS
1 whole wheat tortilla (approx. 50g)
1/2 cup black beans, drained
1/2 medium sweet potato, roasted into cubes
4 large egg whites, scrambled
1/4 cup reduced-fat cheddar cheese, shredded
1 tsp ground cumin
Salt and pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Peel and dice the sweet potato into small cubes, toss with a pinch of salt, pepper, and ground cumin, and spread on a baking sheet. Roast for 20-25 minutes or until tender.
While the sweet potato roasts, rinse and drain the black beans.
In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, pour in the egg whites and gently scramble until just set. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
Lay the whole wheat tortilla flat. Spread the scrambled egg whites evenly over one half of the tortilla.
Layer the roasted sweet potato cubes and black beans over the eggs. Sprinkle the shredded reduced-fat cheddar cheese on top.
Fold the tortilla over to create a half-moon shape. Place the quesadilla back in the skillet over medium heat and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the tortilla is crispy and the cheese is melted.
Remove from heat, slice into wedges, and serve warm. Enjoy your protein-packed quesadilla!
