Ingredients

  • 2 medium sweet potatoes
  • 1 can black beans 15 oz

  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 ripe avocado
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes halved
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro chopped

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  • Wash and peel the sweet potatoes, then dice them into 1-inch cubes.
  • Toss the sweet potato cubes with olive oil, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, and a pinch of salt in a large bowl.
  • Spread the seasoned sweet potatoes on a baking sheet in a single layer.
  • Roast the sweet potatoes in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through.
  • While the sweet potatoes are roasting, rinse and drain the black beans.
  • In a medium saucepan, heat the black beans with corn over medium heat until warm, about 5-7 minutes.
  • Prepare the toppings: slice the avocado, halve the cherry tomatoes, and chop the cilantro.
  • Once the sweet potatoes are done, remove them from the oven and let cool slightly.
  • Assemble the taco bowls: Start with a base of roasted sweet potatoes, followed by the warm black bean and corn mix. Top with avocado, tomatoes, cilantro, and a squeeze of lime juice.
