I first came up with this recipe when I was looking for a way to use up some leftover roasted sweet potatoes and black beans. I had some kale in the fridge that needed to be used up, so I added that to the mix. I also added some onion and red bell pepper for extra flavor and crunch. The result was a delicious and satisfying burrito that was perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal.
