Ingredients
1 lb sweet potato, diced
splash of olive oil
1 1/2 cups cooked black beans (or 1 can, rinsed and drained)
2 large garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup minced cilantro (stems and leaves)
1/2 tsp cumin and red pepper flake, each
1/4 tsp salt and pepper, each
1 TBS lime juice
8 corn tortillas
2 cups red cabbage, sliced
1/2 cup sour cream
Instructions
Heat a large heavy bottomed skillet over medium heat. Add sweet potatoes and a splash of olive oil. Cover and cook stirring occasionally until the sweet potatoes are tender and starting to brown, about 15 minutes.
Combine cooked sweet potatoes with black beans, garlic, cilantro, cumin, red pepper flake, salt, pepper, and lime juice. Stir to combine.
Heat tortillas according to package instructions. I prefer to char them over an open flame.
Top tortillas with shredded cabbage, a tablespoon of sour cream and 1/8th of the sweet potato mixture. Serve.
