Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

  2. 2

    Add the sweet potatoes to a baking sheet with a drizzle of olive oil, the paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss until well-coated.

  3. 3

    Bake for 20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the sweet potato is tender.

  4. 4

    Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the onion and cook for 3-4 minutes, until semi-translucent. Add the jalapeño, garlic, chili powder, cumin, and cayenne pepper and cook for 2-3 minutes, until the spices are fragrant. Add the black beans and corn, season with salt and pepper, and cook until warmed through, 3-4 more minutes.

  5. 5

    To assemble a burrito, add one-third of the bean and corn mixture, one-third of the roasted sweet potatoes, some lettuce, tomatoes, vegan cheese, and guacamole to the center of a tortilla. Fold in the sides and roll up, keeping the filling tucked in place. Repeat with the remaining ingredients. Cut in half and serve.
