Sweet Potato Quesadillas


Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups finely chopped onion
2 garlic cloves minced or pressed
3 tablespoons vegetable oil (Canola)
4 cups grated peeled sweet potato
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon chili powder
2 teaspoons ground cumin
A generous pinch cayenne
Salt and pepper to taste
1 cup grated sharp cheddar cheese
2-3 tablespoons finely chopped cilantro, um I mean Parsley, yeah that's the ticket

8 tortillas
Salsa
Sour cream (if you exercised)
Tabasco

Preparation:
Saute the onions and garlic in the vegetable oil until onions are translucent.
Add the grated sweet potato, oregano, chili powder, cumin and cayenne and cook, covered, for about 10 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent sticking.
When the sweet potato is tender, add salt and pepper to taste and remove filling from heat.
Spread one-eighth of the filling and 2 tablespoons of the cheese on each tortilla.
Sprinkle with cilantro.
Cook the filled tortillas for about 2-3 minutes per side.

Serve immediately, topped with salsa, sour cream (if you exercised), guac on the side, Tabasco to taste.
