sweet potato tacos
the what:
organic corn tortillas
2 ripe avocados
cilantro
1/2 medium red onion
1 medium sweet potato
1 lime
can of organic black beans
salsa (preferrably fresh, organic and flavorful!)
salt, pepper, red pepper flakes
trader joe's chilli pepper sauce (or similar)
the how:
-roast chopped sweet potatoes coated in EVOO and sea salt until semi soft (I used the toaster oven at 375 degrees)
-while potatoes are roasting, make a quick batch of guacamole (using avocados, cilantro, some chopped red onion, the salsa, sea salt and 1/2 the lime)
- sautee chopped red onion, sweet potatoes, red pepper flakes, sea salt, black pepper and a healthy dash of the trader joes chilli pepper sauce in EVOO until the veggies are soft.
- add black beans (1/2-3/4 c) to sweet potato mixture and heat for one more minute
-heat corn tortilla over open flame
-pile the sweet potato mixture, guacamole, and cilantro and a squeeze of the lime
-try not to make a total pig of yourslf in front of your fiance while simultaneously shoving taco in your mouth and talking about what an amazing chef you're turning out to be.
