Slow Cooker Sweet Potato Tacos

Who needs ground beef when you have sweet potatoes?  Spiced with cumin and cayenne, these tacos taste out of this world and are a breeze to make. 

Ingredients

  • 2 large sweet potatoes or yams, diced in 1" cubes 
  • ¼ cup vegetable broth 
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice 
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin 
  • ½ teaspoon ground coriander 
  • 2 teaspoons garlic, minced 
  • 1-2 teaspoons sea salt, or to taste 
  • pinch cayenne (optional) 

Instructions 

  1. Spray the slow cooker crock with olive oil or nonstick spray. Put beans, sweet potatoes, vegetable stock, lime juice, ground cumin, ground coriander, and minced garlic in the cooker. 
  2. Cook on high for about 3 hours, or until sweet potatoes are softened to your liking. Season the filling to taste with salt. 
  3. Assemble the tacos: Put a generous amount of filling inside a warmed tortilla. Top with avocado, salsa, and a squeeze of lime juice.
