Note: Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit to cook your sweet potatoes and cherry tomatoes. You can choose to use canned black beans (saves time) or use dry black beans (soak overnight). I used a pressure cooker to prepare my dry beans. If using canned beans, you will NOT need a pressure cooker.
