Ingredients

• 4 large sweet potatoes
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 (15.5 ounce can) black beans, drained and rinsed
• 8 ounces smoked cheddar cheese, shredded
• ¼ cup chopped cilantro

Directions

• Arrange racks in the upper and lower third of the oven and heat the oven to 425°F. Peel and cut the sweet potatoes into ½-inch thick sticks.
• Divide sweet potatoes evenly between two sheet pans and drizzle each pan with 1 tablespoon of the oil. Season generously with salt and pepper and toss to combine. Spread out the sweet potato sticks into a single layer and roast in the oven until tender, about 25 minutes, rotating the pans halfway through.
• Remove sweet potatoes from the oven and move the upper rack to the middle of the oven. Heat the broiler to high.
• Transfer one tray of sweet potatoes to an oven-safe platter and top with half the black beans and half the cheddar. Top with the other tray of sweet potatoes and layer the remaining black beans and cheddar over the top.
• Place under the broiler until the cheese is melted and bubbly, 3-5 minutes. Sprinkle with cilantro and serve.
