We love the flavor combination of black beans and sweet potatoes. There are many tasty ways you can combine the two ingredients, but we decided to make these black bean and sweet potato taquitos because we can never get enough Mexican food. We added some garlic, onions, and yellow corn to the filling, and topped them off with a avocado and cilantro dressing so they have a nice blend of sweet, tangy, and savory flavors. We hope you enjoy them as much as we did!
