Roasted Sweet Potato Soft Tacos

This recipe is a great addition to your taco dinner night. Easy to make, they are naturally vegan, filling and so delicious. Pair with your favorite chips and tomato salsa.

INGREDIENTS

• 16 oz refried beans - look for vegetarian black or pinto beans to avoid animal lard ingredients
• 1 pound sweet potatoes - diced into ¼ to ½ inch pieces
• 1 tablespoon organic olive oil
• 2 teaspoons taco seasoning
• Sea salt & pepper to taste
• 12 small soft shell tortillas - corn or flour
• 1 avocado - peeled, pitted and diced into chunks or slices
• 1 small white onion - diced into ¼ inch pieces
• 2 limes - cut in half - reserved for topping finished tacos

OPTIONAL INGREDIENTS

• Freshly chopped cilantro
• Plant-based sour cream

DIRECTIONS

Heat the oven to 425F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.  In a mixing bowl, toss the diced sweet potatoes with the organic olive oil, taco seasoning and a pinch of salt and black pepper until combined. In an even layer, spread the coated  sweet potatoes out on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 25-35 minutes — flipping once halfway through, until the potatoes are tender, cooked through and starting to brown.

While the potatoes are roasting, fill the center of each tortilla with a layer of refried beans. Once potatoes are fully cooked, on each tortilla, add a layer of potatoes on top of the refried beans. Top each taco with a sprinkle of diced onion and avocado. If you choose, garnish them with cilantro, plant-based sour cream and serve with a lime wedge. Enjoy!
