directions
For the Cranberry Salsa
In a food processor, pulse the cranberries, red onion, diced apple and jalapeño until finely chopped.
Transfer to a bowl and add the cilantro, lime juice, honey or maple syrup, salt, and pepper.
Mix well and set aside.
For the Harvest Veggie Filling
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Toss the diced sweet potatoes and halved Brussels sprouts with olive oil, ground cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper.
Spread the seasoned vegetables on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes or until they are tender and slightly caramelized, stirring once or twice during cooking.
For Assembling the Tacos
Warm the taco shells or tortillas.
Place a handful of baby kale or mixed greens on each taco shell.
Add the roasted sweet potatoes and Brussels sprouts on top.
Spoon cranberry salsa over the veggies.
Optionally, sprinkle crumbled goat cheese on top for added creaminess and tang.
expiry
Store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days. Keep the components (roasted veggies, cranberry salsa, and taco shells) separate if possible to maintain their individual freshness.
tips
As goat’s cheese isn’t always everyone’s favorite, you can always replace it with a dollop of plain yogurt or sour cream.
