Black Bean and Sweet Potato Tacos

 Missy Tippens


I just had another amazing vegetarian dish this week: black bean and sweet potato tacos. They were SO GOOD! I'm already craving the tacos again. Will be making this often!

This was a dish from Dinnerly food delivery service, so I don't feel I can share the exact recipe. However, I wanted to just tell you the ingredients so you can come up with your own version.

I first peeled and cut up a sweet potato. I was limited on time so cut it pretty small. Then I tossed the potato with olive oil, taco seasoning (powder) and some salt and pepper. I roasted the potatoes at 400 degrees until they started to get tender. Then to the sweet potatoes I added a little bit of water (about 1/4 cup), a can of rinsed and drained black beans, and some chopped garlic. I roasted it a bit longer until the potatoes were ready to eat.


Serve on taco shells (soft corn tortillas is what I used) with guacamole and grated cheese! My husband added salsa to his. Like I said, these were amazing. And so simple! A one-pan dish. Or wait, it was actually two pans because I used a skillet to warm my tortillas. But that's still very easy cleanup!

  1. That's an interesting combination, Missy. Is that Jack cheese or feta?

  2. This is an interesting idea. I actually think we have everything for these. Maybe add some chicken in for us. Mmmm tacos are the way to go!

  3. Yum a -- sweet potatoes and black beans sound like a great combination. And this is the kind of meal you can throw any leftover veggies in as well. Like Katie, I have everything on hand to make this. Thanks for planning out my supper. :-)

    1. Kav, I hope you enjoy it! I just had my hubby get more sweet potatoes at the grocery today. And I always have a ton of black beans on hand. :)
