ode to the atomic eggplant!

so there was this restaurant called the atomic eggplant. it had great veggie and vegan food. then they closed.
but i do remember this recipe and i may have changed it a bit.

sweet potato blackberry quesadilla

you will need.
whole wheat tortillas
sweet potatoes
blackberries cut into pieces
cheese if you want. when i used to make these with cheese i used sharp vermont chedder stuff.
dried ginger, nutmeg, cinnamon, salt
earthbalance or butter or oil


boil or bake the sweet potato (yams work too)
when they are soft take them out of their skins and put in a bowl. mash with earthbalace....1 tablespoon or more. depending on the tater size.
add a pinch of dried ginger, nutmeg, cinnamon, salt.
taste. adjust seasonings.
fire up the skillet! when it is hot...
put a whole wheat tortilla down, spread the sweet potato mash on half and drop a few blackberry chunks and cheese if that's what your into. fold over the tortilla and flip. get both sides brown and crispy. they are done at this point.
you should cut them up and eat them.
you could dip them in sour cream. i'll watch ya.
