1 large sweet potato, peeled and cut into 1/2 in. cubes
1 Tbsp. water
1 lb. ground beef
1 medium onion, chopped
1 can (15 oz.) black beans, rinsed and drained

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine sweet potato and water. Cover and microwave on high for 4-5 minutes or until potato is almost tender.
Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook beef and onion over medium heat until no longer pink; drain. Stir in the beans, enchilada sauce, chili powder, oregano, cumin and sweet potato; heat through.
Place a flour tortilla in a greased 9-in. deep-dish pie plate; layer with a third of the beef mixture and cheese. Repeat layers twice. Bake at 400 for 20-25 minutes or until bubbly.
