Ingredients

  • 1 cup of diced sweet potato, with its skin removed and cut into small 1/4-inch cubes
  • A generous 1/2 cup of thinly sliced yellow onion
  • A drizzle of 2 tablespoons of fragrant olive oil
  • A spoonful of 1 tablespoon of zesty taco seasoning mix
  • A portion of 1/2 cup of plant-based refried beans
  • 4 generously-sized vegan tortillas
  • 1 cup of fluffy cooked brown rice
  • A sprinkle of 1/4 cup of chunky salsa

Step 1

Start by setting your oven to a toasty 450 degrees Fahrenheit (230 degrees Celsius) to get it nice and warm.

Step 2

In a bowl, mix together sweet potatoes, onion, a drizzle of olive oil, and a generous sprinkle of taco seasoning. Once well combined, spread this delightful concoction onto a baking sheet for even cooking.

Step 3

Pop the baking sheet into the oven and let it roast for around 30 minutes until everything reaches your preferred level of deliciousness.

Step 4

As the veggies roast, get your tortillas ready. Lay them out and add a quarter portion of beans down the center of each one. Then, sprinkle on about 1/4 cup of rice, followed by a generous helping of the roasted veggie mix and a dollop of salsa on top of each. Enjoy the vibrant flavors and textures in every bite!
