Addictive Sweet Potato Burritos

By: Karena 
"Once you've had one - you'll want another. The recipe is a little different from most burrito recipes, but I've had many, many requests for it. Serve these with sour cream, chopped green onions and salsa. For vegan burritos, omit the cheese and sour cream. These may be made ahead of time, individually frozen, then heated. For an interesting variation, try deep frying these tasty burritos."

Awesome, but I would used refried beans next time so avoid the hassle of mashing the kidney beans.
