Sweet Potato & Black Bean Tacos

This is very quick meal to throw together during the week night. 

Sweet Potato & Black Bean Filling

Makes about 4 servings, 2 tacos per person

Ingredients

• 1 large sweet potato
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 1-2 garlic cloves
• salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes to taste
• 1 (14oz) can black beans
• 8 corn tortillas

Peel and cut sweet potato into cubes. 

Microwave in a bowl for about 5 minutes to speed up the cooking process. 

In a skillet, sauté garlic in olive oil for a minute. 

Add the par-cooked sweet potatoes and season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes to taste.

Once the potatoes are crusty, add the black beans and cook until everything is heated through.

In a separate skillet, warm up the corn tortillas. (I like my corn tortillas to be crispy, but still foldable).

To assemble: top the tortillas with the potato/bean mixture and salsa. 

And viola! Sweet potato and black bean tacos.
