Sweet Potato Tacos

Ingredients

  • 2 large sweet potatoes
  • 1 cup dried black beans (or 1- 2 cans of black beans)
  • ½ white onion
  • 3 cloves of garlic
  • 1 tbsp cumin
  • 1 head of Lacinato kale (or favorite kale/chard variety)
  • Corn tortillas
  • Goat cheese
  • Salt and olive oil to taste
  • Sriracha (optional)

Instructions

  1. In an instapot or pressure cooker, cook 1 cup of dry black beans with 2 cups of water, 1/2 white onion and 3 cloves of garlic, 1 tbsp of cumin. Cook according to instapot/pressure cooker instructions. When done, salt to taste. Smash some of the beans to achieve the consistency of loosely refried beans.
  2. Peel and cut 2 large sweet potatoes into 3/4 inch chunks (ish). Toss in a bowl with a dash of olive oil and salt. Spread on a baking sheet and bake at 375 F for about 40 minutes, turning the sweet potatoes every 10-15 min until golden brown.
  3. De-stem (or don’t!) a head of kale leaves and sauté in a tsp of olive oil over med-high heat, for about 10 min. When wilted and cooked thoroughly, salt to taste. I like Lacinato/dino kale best, but any kale or chard works well.
  4. Heat/toast corn tortillas on a comal/pan to soften and brown.
  5. Load each corn tortilla with black beans, sweet potatoes, and sautéed kale. Top with goat cheese and Sriracha sauce.
