Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 large sweet potato about 1.25 lbs
  • 1 tbsp jerk seasoning
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • 1 10oz can Ro-Tel tomatoes and chilies drained
  • 1/4 cup diced red onion
  • 1 avocado
  • 1 tsp lime juice
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt
  • 8 fresh sweet basil leaves chiffonade
  • 8 6" corn tortillas warmed
  • additional lime wedges for serving

Method
 

  1. Chop the sweet potato into ~1" cubes and toss with the jerk seasoning and salt. Place them in your air fryer basket in a single layer (they all fit in mine, but if yours is smaller you may need to work in batches) and cook at 400 degrees for 10-12 minutes (shaking/stirring once about halfway through) or until they're slightly crispy and golden brown. 
  2. Combine the ro-tel and onions in a small bowl. In a separate bowl, mash the avocado with a fork and add the lime juice and salt. 
  3. Build your tacos by adding an even amount of potatoes to each taco, then top with tomato mixture, then smashed avocado. Sprinkle basil on top and serve with lime wedges.

Notes

If you want heartier/neater tacos, double the number of tortillas and use two for each!
