Black Bean and Sweet Potato Flautas

I used the link below as inspiration for this recipe. I just basically used fewer ingredients in mine and didn't bake them. So mine were really more like burritos than flautas, I guess. :)  This is a great 15 minute meal to throw together that you can feel good about eating!

Ingredients:
1 medium sweet potato
3 ears of corn, shucked
1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
6 Mission Artisan wheat tortillas
1 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
2 tablespoons freeze dried cilantro (in the produce section-cheaper than fresh)
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese

Either bake the sweet potato or microwave it with a wet paper towel around it for 7-8 minutes on high.

Scoop out cooked sweet potato and add to a large skillet. Add corn, black beans, tomatoes, spices and oil. Warm through for about 7 minutes.
Serve mixture on wheat tortillas with a sprinkle of feta cheese. Enjoy :)
