Pop it in the oven and roast for about 30 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are nice and tender. Once that’s done, lay out your tortillas and spoon some of the beans down the center of each one. Add a scoop of rice, then pile on the roasted veggies, and finish with a spoonful of salsa. Roll them up and enjoy!
