Flavorful Sweet Potato Tacos

These tacos are filled with roasted sweet potatoes, avocado, and fresh cilantro, all wrapped in warm tortillas. The recipe takes about 30 minutes to prepare and serves 4 people.

Ingredients

2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon chili powder
Salt and pepper to taste
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
Juice of 1 lime
8 small corn or flour tortillas
1 avocado, sliced
Additional toppings: diced red onion, crumbled feta cheese, or hot sauce (optional)

Instructions

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Prepare the Sweet Potatoes: In a large bowl, toss the diced sweet potatoes with olive oil, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
Roast the Sweet Potatoes: Spread the sweet potatoes on a baking sheet in a single layer. Roast for 20-25 minutes, or until tender and slightly caramelized, stirring halfway through.
Make the Cilantro Lime Dressing: In a small bowl, mix the chopped cilantro and lime juice. Set aside.
Warm the Tortillas: While the sweet potatoes are roasting, warm the tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable.
Assemble the Tacos: Fill each tortilla with roasted sweet potatoes, sliced avocado, and drizzle with the cilantro lime dressing. Add any additional toppings if desired.
Serve: Enjoy the tacos warm, garnished with extra cilantro or lime wedges.
