Directions

1. Step

Heat a pan with cooking oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onions, red bell pepper, and yellow bell pepper. Season with a pinch of salt and sauté until softened. Set aside.

2. Step

Peel and mash the roasted (or boiled/steamed) sweet potatoes in a bowl. Mix in the unsalted butter (if needed for texture), a pinch of salt, the sauteed vegetables, and the sweet corn. Stir until well combined.

3. Step

Spread a thin layer of ketchup or tomato pasta sauce over a wheat tortilla. Sprinkle a layer of mozzarella cheese. Spread the sweet potato mixture evenly on top. Fold the tortilla in half. Heat a pan over low heat with a little cooking oil. Fry the quesadilla on both sides until golden brown and crispy. Remove from heat and serve warm.
