Crispy Sprout and Potato Hash Tacos with Smoky Chipotle Yogurt
A light, nutrient-packed twist on tacos—crispy sweet potatoes and fresh sprouts pan-fried to perfection, then tucked into warm corn tortillas with creamy avocado, fresh salsa, and a smoky chipotle yogurt sauce. This is a healthy, flavor-packed meal that’s rich in fiber, antioxidants, and heart-healthy fats.
Ingredients (Makes 6 tacos)
For the Hash
- 2 medium sweet potatoes, shredded and squeezed dry (fiber + beta-carotene for glowing skin)
- 1 cup sprouts (broccoli, radish, or alfalfa—loaded with antioxidants)
- 1 tbsp avocado oil (healthy fats + high smoke point)
- ½ tsp smoked paprika (natural anti-inflammatory)
- ½ tsp ground cumin (aids digestion)
- ½ tsp garlic powder (immune-boosting)
- Salt & freshly cracked black pepper, to taste
For the Smoky Chipotle Yogurt
- ½ cup Greek yogurt (high-protein, gut-friendly)
- 1 tsp adobo sauce (from canned chipotle peppers)
- Juice of ½ lime (vitamin C boost)
- ½ tsp raw honey (natural sweetness)
- Salt, to taste
For Assembly
- 6 small corn tortillas (fiber + whole grain)
- 1 ripe avocado, sliced (healthy fats for energy)
- ½ cup fresh tomato salsa (hydrating + packed with lycopene)
- Extra sprouts, for garnish
- Lime wedges, for serving
Instructions
1. Cook the Hash
Heat a large nonstick pan over medium heat and add avocado oil. Spread the shredded sweet potatoes evenly in the pan and let them crisp up for 4–5 minutes without stirring. Flip, then add the sprouts and season with smoked paprika, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Cook for another 2–3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until everything is golden and caramelized.
2. Make the Smoky Yogurt Sauce
In a small bowl, mix Greek yogurt, adobo sauce, lime juice, and honey. Season with salt. The result? A creamy, smoky, slightly tangy sauce that balances the crispy hash perfectly.
3. Warm the Tortillas
Heat a dry skillet over medium heat and warm each tortilla for 30 seconds per side until soft and pliable.
4. Assemble the Tacos
- Fill each tortilla with crispy sweet potato and sprout hash.
- Add sliced avocado for creaminess.
- Spoon over fresh tomato salsa for a burst of juicy flavor.
- Drizzle with smoky chipotle yogurt for a spicy, tangy kick.
- Garnish with extra sprouts for crunch and extra nutrients.
Serve with lime wedges for a fresh finish.
Healthy Eating Hack
For extra crunch, soak the shredded sweet potatoes in cold water for 10 minutes before cooking. This removes excess starch, making them crispier while keeping them light and nutritious.
These tacos are proof that healthy eating doesn’t have to be boring. They’re packed with flavor, loaded with nutrients, and perfect for a balanced meal that fuels your body without the guilt.
