  • 1 cup refried black beans
  • 1 cup sweet potato puree, homemade or canned*
  • 1 cup grated cheese
  • 8 corn tortillas
  • Olive oil
  • 1 large avocado, diced

  • 1 clove garlic, minced

  • Juice of 1 lime
  • Salt, to taste

Preparation

Step 1

Instructions
Pre-heat oven to 450 F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and brush with a small amount of olive oil. If corn tortillas aren’t very pliable you may need to warm on the stove or microwave for about 5 seconds each before assembling tacos.
Spread about 1 tablespoon of refried beans on half of the tortilla and top with 1 tablespoon sweet potato and a sprinkling of cheese. Fold tortilla over and repeat with remaining ingredients. Brush the top of each taco with a small amount of olive oil and bake for about 10 minutes, flipping once.
Make the avocado salsa while tacos are baking. Add all ingredients to a medium sized bowl and mix until combined.
Let tacos cool for a few minutes before eating and top with avocado salsa, if desired. Recipe serves 2-3 people but can easily be adapted to make more.
