Ingredients

• 2 medium-sized sweet potatoes
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 0.5 teaspoon chili powder
• 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 8 small cassava tortillas
• 1 large avocado
• 1 large lime
• 0.5 medium-sized red onion
• 0.25 cup (chopped) fresh cilantro
• 1 small jalapeño (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Peel and dice the sweet potatoes into 1-inch cubes.

Step 3

In a mixing bowl, combine the diced sweet potatoes, olive oil, smoked paprika, ground cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper. Toss until the potatoes are evenly coated.

Step 4

Spread the seasoned sweet potatoes in an even layer on the prepared baking sheet and roast in the oven for 20-25 minutes, tossing halfway through, until they are soft on the inside and slightly crispy on the edges.

Step 5

While the sweet potatoes roast, prepare your toppings. Dice the avocado and red onion. Slice the jalapeño (if using). Chop the fresh cilantro. Cut the lime into wedges.

Step 6

Warm the cassava tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds per side or until pliable.

Step 7

Assemble the tacos by placing a generous amount of roasted sweet potatoes on each tortilla. Top with diced avocado, red onion, jalapeño slices, and chopped cilantro. Squeeze lime juice over the top before serving.

Step 8

Serve immediately and enjoy your Paleo Spicy Potato Tacos!
