Description

These sweet potato tacos are a perfect light and healthy way to enjoy Mexican Food. They are packed with flavor, and so easy to make!

Ingredients

  • 2  Carrots, Diced
  • 1-½  Sweet Potatoes, Cubed
  • 1  Red Onion, Diced
  • 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
  • 4 cloves Garlic, Minced
  • ½ teaspoons Chili Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Cumin
  • 1 teaspoon Paprika
  • ⅛ teaspoons Cayenne Pepper
  • 1 container 6 Oz. Container Of Plain Greek Yogurt
  • 2 Tablespoons Your Favorite Packaged Taco Seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon Sriracha
  • 1 Tablespoon Water Or Lemon Juice
  • 6  Corn Tortillas
  • 1 cup Fat Free Black Bean Dip (I Used Trader Joes Brand)
  • 1 bunch Cilantro, Chopped, For Garnish
  • 1  Lime, Cut Into Wedges

Preparation

Dice up all of your veggies (carrots, sweet potatoes and red onion).

Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add veggies and saute for a few minutes. Add in the garlic, chili powder, cumin, paprika and cayenne. Let them continue to cook until the potatoes are soft. (Note: keep an eye on the mixture as it can burn rather quickly. Stir often.) When done, set aside.

Prepare your yogurt sauce by combining the taco seasoning packet, Greek yogurt and sriracha. Add 1 tablespoon of water or lemon juice to thin out the sauce.

Warm your tortillas in a skillet over medium heat or for a few seconds in the microwave and set aside.

Assemble your tacos! Slather a dollop of the bean dip from Trader Joes on the bottom. Layer with a spoonful or two of the sweet potato mixture, sauce and chopped cilantro. Squeeze a wedge of lime over the top. Enjoy!
