Preparation
1. Roast the Sweet Potatoes
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Toss the diced sweet potatoes with olive oil, chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper (if using), salt, and pepper. Spread them evenly on a baking sheet.
Roast for 25-30 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are tender and slightly caramelized, flipping halfway through.
2. Prepare the Black Beans
In a medium skillet, heat a little olive oil over medium heat.
Add the black beans, and cook for 3-4 minutes until warmed through. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
3. Prepare the Toppings
While the sweet potatoes roast, prepare your taco toppings. Slice the avocado and red onion, and chop the cilantro.
If you’re using feta or cotija cheese, crumble it.
4. WARM THE TORTILLAS (Warm the Tortillas)
Warm the tortillas on a dry skillet over medium heat for 30 seconds on each side, or until soft and pliable.
5. ASSEMBLE THE TACOS (Assemble the Tacos)
Start by placing a few spoonfuls of the roasted sweet potatoes in the center of each tortilla.
Add a spoonful of black beans, then top with sliced avocado, red onion, cilantro, and crumbled cheese (if using).
Squeeze a little lime juice over the top, and drizzle with hot sauce for an extra kick.
6. SERVE (Serve)
Serve the tacos immediately with extra lime wedges and hot sauce on the side.
