- 2 medium sweet potatoes peeled and diced
- 1 can black beans rinsed and drained
- 1 tbsp olive oil or avocado oil
- 1 tsp cumin
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp pepper
- 8 corn tortillas certified GF
- 1 lime cut into wedges for serving
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro chopped, optional for garnish
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). On a baking sheet, toss the diced sweet potatoes with olive oil, cumin, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Spread them out in a single layer.
Roast the sweet potatoes in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes, or until they’re tender and slightly caramelized. Toss halfway through for even roasting.
While the sweet potatoes are roasting, heat the black beans in a small saucepan over medium heat until warmed through. This should take about 5 minutes.
Once the sweet potatoes are done, warm the corn tortillas in a pan for about 30 seconds on each side, until just pliable. Trust me, this will make them so much better!
Assemble your tacos by filling each tortilla with roasted sweet potatoes and black beans. Top with chopped cilantro and a squeeze of lime juice. Get ready for a flavor explosion!
Serve immediately with extra lime wedges on the side. Enjoy your newfound taco creativity without gluten!
Notes: Use certified GF tortillas to ensure they’re truly gluten-free. Check for cross-contamination if using canned beans. These tacos can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheated easily.
Tips: Add some avocado slices for creaminess. Drizzle with lime juice before serving. For extra kick, toss in some diced jalapeños!
