Why This Recipe Is A Favorite

A fresh and flavorful way to enjoy tacos without using any meat. It’s perfect for anyone looking to eat lighter or try something new. The ingredients are easy to find, and the result is a satisfying meal full of vibrant colors and textures.

Kitchen Tricks

- Use a variety of beans or lentils for added protein and texture.
- Warm the tortillas before serving to make them more pliable and tasty.
- Add fresh lime juice and chopped cilantro for extra brightness and flavor.

Step 1

Heat your oven to 375°F (190°C). In a bowl, toss the diced sweet potatoes with 4 1/2 teaspoons of olive oil, some minced garlic, and a pinch of salt until everything is nicely coated. Spread the potatoes out in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet and roast them in the oven. Be sure to give them a good stir every 15 minutes or so, and roast until they’re tender and a little caramelized, about 40 minutes.

Step 2

While the potatoes are roasting, warm the remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until it softens and turns translucent, about 5 to 10 minutes. Next, toss in the corn and cook it until it starts to get some color, around 5 to 8 minutes.

Step 3

Once the corn is a bit browned, stir in the taco sauce, taco seasoning, and coriander. Pour in some water and let the mixture come to a gentle simmer. Let it cook for about 3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.

Step 4

Finally, add the roasted sweet potatoes and black beans to the skillet. Stir everything together so the potatoes and beans get coated in the sauce. Serve this flavorful mixture warm, spooned over your favorite tortillas.

Serving Inspiration

Serve with a side of Mexican rice or a simple avocado salad. Top with salsa, sour cream, or guacamole for added richness. These tacos also go well with a cold beverage like a light beer or sparkling water.

Proper Storage Tips

Store any leftover filling in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Keep tortillas wrapped in foil or a plastic bag to prevent drying out. Reheat gently in a pan or microwave before serving again.
