Delicious Twist: Smoky Sweet Potato Taco Recipe

Today’s Unique Creation: Smoky Sweet Potato Tacos

I’m excited to share a new recipe with you today that combines the smoky flavors of chipotle with the sweetness of roasted sweet potatoes in a delicious taco filling. This dish is perfect for a casual weeknight meal with a twist or a fun gathering with friends. Let’s jump into how to create these flavorful tacos!

Ingredients:

• 2 medium sweet potatoes, diced
• 1 small red onion, sliced
• 2 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, chopped
• 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
• 1 tsp cumin
• 1 tsp paprika
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 8 small tortillas
• 1 avocado, sliced
• 1 lime, cut into wedges
• Fresh cilantro, for garnish

Kitchen Tools:

• baking sheet
• mixing bowl
• skillet
• spatula

Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss the diced sweet potatoes and sliced red onion with olive oil, cumin, paprika, salt, and the chopped chipotle peppers in a mixing bowl. Spread the mixture out on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are tender and slightly crispy.

While the sweet potatoes are roasting, heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the drained and rinsed black beans to the skillet and season with a bit of salt and pepper. Cook for 5-7 minutes, then set aside.

Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or in the oven for a few minutes until they are pliable. To assemble the tacos, fill each tortilla with a spoonful of the black beans, roasted sweet potato mixture, and sliced avocado. Squeeze a bit of fresh lime juice over the top and garnish with fresh cilantro.

The total weight of the cooked dish is approximately 1200 grams, with 8 servings. Each serving weighs around 150 grams, with an estimated calorie count of 250 per serving.

One unique tip for this recipe is to sprinkle some crumbled feta cheese on top of the tacos for an added creamy and salty element that pairs perfectly with the smoky and sweet flavors.

I hope you enjoy making these smoky sweet potato tacos as much as I do! Feel free to customize them with your favorite toppings and make them your own. Bon appétit!
