Ingredients

  • 2 (15) oz can chickpeas, rinsed, drained and patted dry
  • 1 large sweet potato cubed into ½” pieces
  • 3 tbsp olive or avocado oil
  • 2 tbsp taco seasoning
  • butter lettuce leaves for taco "shells"

Optional Toppings

  • guacamole
  • pico de gallo
  • chopped cilantro
  • red onion
  • jalapeno
  • Chipotle Ranch

Instructions

  • PREHEAT oven to 425°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • STEAM sweet potatoes for 4 minutes. This will help them cook at the same rate as the chickpeas in the oven. We do this in a reusable zip bag with ¼ cup water in the microwave for 4 minutes. Drain and pat sweet potatoes dry.
  • COMBINE chickpeas and sweet potatoes in a large bowl. Toss with oil. Add seasoning and toss again until well combined.
  • SPREAD chickpea mixture out on the baking sheet in an even layer. Bake for 45 minutes, or until crispy, stirring every 15 minutes.
  • BUILD your tacos with the lettuce leaves, guac, chickpea mixture, and other toppings of choice. Enjoy!
