Sweet Potato, Avocado and Black Bean Tacos

Recipe Description

I made these veggie Sweet Potato, Avocado and Black Bean Tacos for a meat loving friend recently and you won’t believe what they said: “I don’t even miss the beef”! That’s how good these tacos are – even meat lovers love them. You can easily make these vegan by omitting the cheese or substituting it with some vegan feta.

To make these, I start by roasting the sweet potato with some oil and chili. Towards the end of the sweet potato cooking time, I heat the salsa verde and black beans. I serve everything in the middle of the table and allow my guests to assemble their own tacos. This takes the pressure of the chef and allows everyone to be involved in the process!

To make Sweet Potato, Avocado and Black Bean Tacos, you will need the following ingredients:So, how do you make Sweet Potato, Avocado and Black Bean Tacos?

These tacos rocks. I made them for my wife and she loved them. We usually meat, but these were so good that we had them twice that week. The sweet potato mixed with the black beans was perfect. It's easy and fun to assemble them as a family too.
