These sweet potato and black bean tacos are perfect for an easy weeknight dinner. Add your favourite toppings but whatever you do, don’t skip the zippy lime crema!
Sweet potatoes and black beans are two staples in my household, so putting them together in tacos? It was just meant to be. (Although honestly, is there anything that doesn’t work well in tacos?! From jackfruit tacos to vegan birria tacos and crispy beer-battered vegan fish tacos, it’s all good.)
The sweet potatoes and red onions are cooked until the sweet potatoes are crispy on the outside and the onions are semi-caramelised, and then all the delectable seasonings are added to the mix. Fresh veggies add colour, texture, and flavour, then that vegan lime crema drizzle is definitely the icing on top.
