Ingredients
- 2 medium sweet potatoes diced into 1-inch cubes
- 1 red bell pepper sliced
- 1 yellow bell pepper sliced
- 1 red onion cut into wedges
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup Mexican crema or sour cream
- 2 limes juiced
- 1 clove garlic minced
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 12 corn tortillas
- 1 cup fresh cilantro chopped
- 1 avocado sliced
- Optional: crumbled queso fresco
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, toss the sweet potatoes, bell peppers, and onion with olive oil, chili powder, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
- Spread vegetables in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Avoid overcrowding to ensure proper roasting.
- Roast for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through, until vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized at the edges.
- While vegetables roast, prepare the lime crema by whisking together Mexican crema, lime juice, minced garlic, and salt in a small bowl. Refrigerate until ready to use.
- Warm the tortillas either in a dry skillet over medium heat or wrapped in foil in the oven during the last 5 minutes of vegetable roasting.
- Assemble tacos by filling each tortilla with roasted vegetables, drizzling with lime crema, and topping with fresh cilantro, avocado slices, and queso fresco if desired.
