Feta, Spinach and Sweet Potato Wrap image

This unlikely (on the surface of it) combination was a big hit with the consumers! Talk about something easy to do. To best of my knowledge, this comes right out of my own head.

Time 40m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

8 ounces dry feta cheese
1 bunch fresh spinach (about 2 cups)
1 1/2 lbs sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed
1/3 cup diced bell pepper, mixed colors preferable
1/3 cup diced red onion
2 teaspoons curry, spices of choice
1 tablespoon basil
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon soft extra-light vegetable oil spread
1 teaspoon liquid sweetener (honey, agave syrup)
salt and black pepper
6 large soft wheat flour tortillas
salt and black pepper

Steps:

  • I do this in the food processor, but mostly it's also easy by hand.
  • Chop the spinach and the feta cheese together so they form an evenly blended mass.
  • Peel and chop the sweet potatoes and put them in water to cover.
  • Bring to the boil, and cook until just tender.
  • Dice the bell peppers and onion and set aside.
  • When the potatotes are done, drain and stir in the spread and the curry spices, basil, garlic powder and sweetener. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Spread the spinach and feta mix on the tortillas, dividing it evenly and making a flat bed.
  • Place the potato chunks on top spreading them out.
  • Top with the diced peppers and onion.
  • Fold in the sides of the tortilla toward the middle, leaving about 1/3 open space in the middle (no the sides do not touch). Fold the bottom third over the two sides and then continue on folding until the tortilla is closed.
  • Tuck in loose side edges.
  • Bake in the oven at 425F until the tortillas brown and puff.
  • Serve after a brief cooling as a hefty lunch.
