Ingredients

Tacos

  • 1 10 pack hard “Stand & Stuff” taco shells
  • 1 15 oz can Bruce’s Yam Cut Sweet Potatoes in Syrup; drained
  • 2 cups chopped lettuce
  • 2 avocados; sliced
  • 5 radishes; sliced
  • 1 jalapeño; sliced into rings
  • dried cilantro or parsley

Lime Crema

  • 3/4 cup dairy sour cream
  • 1/4 cup half & half
  • 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt

Instructions

  • Heat taco shells for 5 minutes in oven at 325 degrees F.
  • Warm sweet potatoes in the microwave until hot.
  • To assemble tacos, stand them on a work surface and first scatter lettuce on the bottom of shells (this prevents the bottom of taco shell from getting soggy).
  • Stuff tacos with sweet potatoes, avocados, radishes and jalapeño then drizzle with lime cream and sprinkle with dried cilantro or parsley.
  • To make crema, stir all ingredients in a small bowl until creamy.
