Sweet Potato Tacos
I love these tacos! They are so tasty and filling. The mix of crispy sweet potatoes and savory black beans make the perfect bite. On top of that, you add the avocados, cilantro, and cotija cheese, and I end up stuffing my taco so full I can barley lift it up. These tacos have a little heat from the green chiles, but you can bump up the heat a little by adding more green chiles or other spicier peppers.
Step-By-Step Instructions
First heat your oven to 450.Then, place your diced sweet potatoes in a large bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and add the taco seasoning and salt and pepper. Toss until evenly coating.Next, use your largest cookie sheet. Spread the potatoes out over the sheet in a single layer. Make sure they aren’t touching as much as possible.Cook the potatoes for 35-40 minutes, flipping every 10 minutes. This will ensure they are crispy on all sides. You will know they are done when the potatoes are crispy and browned on all sides.
While the potatoes are cooking, make the black bean filling. Heat oil in a large skillet. Add spices and green chiles. Cook until the garlic is fragrant.Add the black beans, tomato juice, and cilantro. Add salt and pepper to taste. Cook over medium heat until most of the liquid is gone.
Once the potatoes and filling are done, assemble your tacos! Serve with any taco toppings you like. I chose avocado, cilantro, and cotija cheese.
