Filled with delicious roasted sweet potatoes and topped with fresh and crunchy salsa, these sweet potato tacos are packed with flavours and character.

This dish is loaded with plant-based proteins and fibre. I also love the bright and colourful mix of its fresh ingredients.

The creamy Chipotle Avocado Sauce adds quite a punch to this tasty Mexican-inspired recipe. You can vary the amount of chilli to suit your personal preference.

While the sweet potatoes are roasting in the oven, you can prepare the salsa and avocado sauce and have dinner ready in just 40 mins or so. It’s the perfect midweek family meal or Meat Free Monday plant-based dinner.

If you are looking for a hearty and filling vegan recipe that can be enjoyed by everyone, these Sweet Potato Tacos With Black Bean Pineapple Salsa are a definite winner.  Enjoy!

  • Preheat the oven 220°C / 200°C Fan / 425°F / Gas mark 7.
  • Peal and cut sweet potatoes in 1 cm [0.4 inch] dice. Spread on a large oven tray, tossed with 3 Tbsp of olive oil and 1 tsp of smoked paprika. Cook for 20-25 mins until golden and soft. Season with a 1/4 tsp of salt.
  • In the meantime, make the black bean salsa. Rinse and drain the black beans and corn. Transfer to a bowl.

  • When the sweet potatoes are cooked, pile them on each tortilla with salsa and avocado sauce. Sprinkle with more freshly chopped coriander if desired.
