Today’s Recipe: Sweet Potato and Black Bean Tacos

Hey there foodie friends! Today, I’m excited to share a delicious and hearty recipe for Sweet Potato and Black Bean Tacos. This dish is perfect for a cozy night in or a casual gathering with friends. The sweet and savory flavors of the sweet potatoes and black beans pair perfectly with the crunchy taco shells. Let’s dive in!

Ingredients:

  • 2 medium sweet potatoes, diced
  • 1 can of black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1/2 red onion, diced
  • 1 red bell pepper, diced
  • 2 tablespoons of taco seasoning
  • 2 tablespoons of olive oil
  • 8 taco shells
  • Toppings of your choice (avocado, salsa, sour cream, cilantro, etc.)

Kitchen Tools:

  • baking sheet
  • skillet
  • mixing bowl
  • spatula

To start, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the diced sweet potatoes on the baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with taco seasoning. Toss to coat evenly and roast in the oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are tender and slightly crispy.

While the sweet potatoes are roasting, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the diced red onion and bell pepper, sautéing until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Add in the drained and rinsed black beans and cook for another 2-3 minutes until heated through.

Once the sweet potatoes are done roasting, add them to the skillet with the black bean mixture. Stir everything together and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to let the flavors meld.

To assemble the tacos, spoon the sweet potato and black bean mixture into the taco shells. Top with your favorite toppings such as avocado, salsa, sour cream, and cilantro.

This recipe makes 8 tacos, with each serving weighing approximately 150 grams. One serving is around 250 calories.

Tip: For an extra burst of flavor, squeeze fresh lime juice over the tacos before serving. It adds a refreshing zing that takes this dish to the next level!

I hope you give these Sweet Potato and Black Bean Tacos a try! Feel free to get creative with the toppings and make it your own. Enjoy!
