Mysteriously Good Together: Sweet Potato & Black Beans
Posted by stacey under Healthy Recipes, Vegetarian/Vegan Recipes

Wednesday night I ended up working late so my handy husband cooked up Navajo Stew (Adaption of Moosewood Recipe) from another favorite blog, Albion Cooks. I don’t know why sweet potatoes and black beans taste good together, but another good use of this combo is posted here. This recipe had the perfect level of spiciness from the adobo sauce - hot enough to get your blood moving and sinuses cleared, but not too hot that you have to drink water after every bite. We had tortillas on hand, so we warmed them up and made ourselves some Navajo Stew burritos. The cook topped his burritos with Mexican cheese and sour cream and I topped mine with black olives. As you can probably tell from the picture, we have a ton of leftovers.
