Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups sweetpotatoes peeled, diced - approx 1 large sweetpotato
  • 1 cup onion diced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 jalapeno diced. optional
  • 15 oz black beans, low-sodium 1 can. drained.
  • 2 tbsp taco seasoning store bought or homemade. I used low-sodium.
  • ½ lime juice of half a lime
  • 12 6-inch corn tortillas I used the low-carb option.

Instructions
 

  • Preheat air fryer.
  • Add the diced sweetpotato to the air fryer basket and lightly spray with olive oil spray.
  • Cook the sweetpotato cubes for 10 minutes at 400 degrees. Shake once or twice during the cooking process.
  • While the sweetpotatoes are roasting in the air fryer, warm a large skillet on medium heat.
  • Add onions and garlic, saute until translucent.
  • Add the diced jalapeno, stir well. *If your family doesn't like spicy, feel free to leave the jalapeno out.
  • Add black beans, taco seasoning and juice from the lime. Stir well.
  • Once sweetpotatoes are done, add them to the black bean mixture and stir well. Remove from heat.
  • Lay the tortillas out on the counter and place 1-2 tablespoons of the sweetpotato mixture into each tortilla.
  • Roll each tortilla tightly, like a cigar. And place the rolled tortilla, seam side down, in the air fryer.
  • Fill the air fryer basket (it will fit about 8 rolled tortillas, you will have to do 2 batches to make them all).
  • Spray the tortillas lightly with the olive oil spray.
  • Cook in the air fryer for 9 minutes at 400°.
  • Enjoy with salsa, guacamole, sour cream or lime crema...or just as is!

Notes

To make the lime crema, simply mix 1/2 cup non-fat greek yogurt, a dash of salt, the juice from the other half of the lime and some lime zest. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
