1
Preheat the broiler and line a large broiler-proof baking sheet with foil.
2
Place the halved sweet potatoes on the baking sheet, cut side down. Broil until tender and slightly charred, about 7-9 minutes.
3
While the sweet potatoes cook, heat the olive oil and minced garlic in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook until the garlic is fragrant and starts to sizzle.
4
Add the ground cumin, ground cinnamon, and cayenne pepper to the skillet, stirring for 30 seconds.
5
Stir in the rinsed and drained black beans, allowing them to heat through, about 2 minutes. Lower the heat.
6
Add the chopped spinach to the skillet, and cook until just beginning to wilt, about 1 minute.
7
Place the flour tortillas on the prepared baking sheet.
8
Scoop out the cooked sweet potato from the skins and evenly spread on one half of each tortilla.
9
Top the sweet potatoes with the bean and spinach mixture, followed by the shredded Monterey Jack cheese. Then, fold the tortillas to cover the filling.
10
Place the filled tortillas under the broiler and cook until golden brown and the cheese has melted, about 2 minutes.
11
Slice each quesadilla into wedges and serve with store-bought salsa.
