INSTRUCTIONS
Heat oil in a large pot and saute onion until almost transparent around the edges. Add minced garlic and stir. Add cooked beans, water or bean-cooking liquid, chili powder, cumin, mustard, and cayenne. Bring to a oil, turn heat to low, cover, and simmer until beans are very soft, 10 to 15 minutes. Stir in soy sauce. Mash beans in the pot with a potato masher or large slotted spoon. Simmer, uncovered, to cook away any excess liquid. Taste and add more seasoning if desired. Sprinkle scallions over beans. Preheat oven to 375F. Spread 2/3 cup bean mixture down the middle of a tortilla and top with 1/2 cup mashed sweet potato. Roll up, folding edges in from two side to cover filling. Repeat with remaining tortillas. Place burritos seam side down on a baking sheet or in a casserole dish. Bake until crisp, 5 to 12 minutes. Sprinkle burritos with toppings of choice. Garnish as desired.
