Method

1

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Peel and dice sweet potatoes into 1/2-inch cubes.

2

Toss sweet potatoes with 1 tablespoon olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes, or until tender and slightly caramelized, flipping halfway through.

3

While sweet potatoes are roasting, prepare the black beans. Drain and rinse the black beans.

4

In a medium saucepan, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the black beans, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until heated through and slightly thickened.

5

Make the lime crema: In a small bowl, combine sour cream with the juice of 1/2 lime. Stir well and set aside.

6

Warm taco shells according to package directions.

7

Assemble the tacos: Fill each taco shell with roasted sweet potatoes and seasoned black beans. Drizzle with lime crema and garnish with chopped cilantro.

8

Serve immediately with your favorite taco toppings, such as avocado or salsa.
