To make these tacos, you'll need the following ingredients:

- 1 large sweet potato, peeled and diced
- 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 red onion, diced
- 1 red bell pepper, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 8-10 small corn tortillas
- Optional toppings: avocado, cilantro, lime wedges, hot sauce


To start, preheat your oven to 400 degrees F. Toss the sweet potato with the olive oil, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper, and spread it out on a baking sheet. Roast for 20-25 minutes, or until the sweet potato is tender and lightly browned.
While the sweet potato is roasting, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and bell pepper, and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until softened. Add the garlic and cook for another minute, until fragrant.
Add the black beans to the skillet, and stir to combine. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until heated through.
To assemble the tacos, warm the tortillas in the oven or on the stovetop. Spoon some of the black bean mixture onto each tortilla, followed by some of the roasted sweet potato. Top with avocado, cilantro, lime wedges, and hot sauce, if desired.
