Add black beans (along with the liquid) and cumin and cook until the beans are heated through. Stir in the kale, corn and limejuice and cook for about five more minutes or until the kale has wilted down.

While your beans are cooking, combine half an avocado with one clove of crushed garlic, a squish of limejuice and a pinch of salt. Mash up with the back of a fork and then set aside.Split your YAM in half and top each with two tablespoons of cheese.
