The inspiration for these Swiss Chard and Sweet Potato Burritos came to me one day when I was looking for a healthy and flavorful breakfast that I could make ahead of time. I had some leftover quinoa and sweet potato in my refrigerator, and I thought that they would be a great base for a burrito. I also had some Swiss chard in my garden, and I thought that it would add a nice pop of color and nutrition to the dish. I experimented with different combinations of ingredients and spices, and I finally came up with a recipe that I loved. I've been making these burritos for breakfast ever since, and I always get rave reviews from my family and friends.
