Ingredient Notes:
- Sweet Potatoes – I like Red Garnet sweet potatoes for this recipe. Something like a Jewel Sweet Potato will work as well.
- Olive Oil – Any neutral tasting oil will work. If you wan’t to make these oil-free you can. Just simply use parchment paper and follow the same instructions. Keep in mind they won’t get quite as roasted.
- Ground Coriander – This is a super unique flavor and it compliments the sweet potatoes well. If you do not have any on hand you could also use cumin.
- Spices – The onion powder, garlic powder, salt and pepper add a nice savory flavor to the sweet potato. Make sure to use all the spices listed!
- Fixings – Serve with whatever taco fixings you like best. These are great on flour or corn tortillas.

How To Make:
Preheat oven to 425°F degrees. Wash sweet potatoes, peel and dice into bite sized cubes. If you prefer to keep the skin on your sweet potatoes you can, just make sure to wash them really well.

Place sweet potatoes onto a large sheet pan and toss in olive oil. Season with garlic powder, onion powder, coriander, salt and pepper. Toss again.

Place into the oven to roast, bake until tender and golden brown about 25 minutes, tossing half way through.

Assemble tacos with your favorite fixings.
Enjoy!

Variations:
- Gluten-free – To make these gluten-free you can simply use corn tortillas.
- Black Beans – I love adding black beans to these tacos. If you have time to whip some up they are a great addition. My Slow Cooker Black Beans are my go to easy recipe.
- Spicy – To make these tacos spicy you could add cayenne to the sweet potatoes or some jalapeño on top. Something like Soyrizo (Vegan Chorizo) would also be an amazing addition!
- Veggies – Feel free to add all of your favorite sautéed veggies to these tacos. I tend to make a fajita style veggie blend when I want to add veggies to my tacos. Things like bell peppers, squash, onion and spinach are great.
Store any leftover roasted sweet potato in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
