  1. 1

    Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 425°.

  2. 2

    Cut sweet potatoes into half inch thick wedges. Toss on a baking sheet with a large drizzle of oil and 1 tablespoon southwest spice. Season with salt and pepper.

  3. 3

    Roast on top rack until tender and lightly crisped, 25 to 30 minutes.

  4. 4

    Meanwhile, finely slice jalapeño into rounds removing ribs and seeds for less heat. Zest and quarter lime. Halve, peel, and thinly slice onion. Dice a few slices until you have a quarter cup. Halve, quarter, and thinly slice green pepper into strips. Dice tomato, and roughly chop cilantro.

  5. 5

    In a small bowl, combine jalapeño, juice from half the lime, half teaspoon sugar, and a big pinch of salt. Set aside to pickle and stir occasionally until ready to serve.

  6. 6

    Heat a large drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium high heat. Add sliced onion and green pepper. Cook while stirring occasionally until softened and lightly charred, 8 to 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and remove pan from heat.

  7. 7

    While veggies cook, in a small bowl, combine Tomato, Cilantro, diced onion, and a squeeze of lime juice. Season with salt and pepper.

No culinary experience. Watched a lot of Food Shows, and just enjoy cooking new things. I’m trucker, so most of my meals are made when I am home. I dabble in both my own creations as well as sharing some of the best from other recipes such as HelloFresh and online searches. Presentation, obviously, is all me.

to make it vegan, I blitzed tofu and some lemon juice in the food processor. It tasted the same as sour cream!!!
