The Star Ingredient of this recipe is no doubt the Maria & Ricardos Keto Almond Flour Tortillas

These grain-free keto almond flour tortillas are the ideal choice for this dish—soft, sturdy, and a subtle nutty backdrop for the roasted butternut squash. I love eating something that tastes indulgent but I know is healthy! These tortillas are incredibly versatile, I often make vegan quesadillas or chips with them as well! I highly recommend them.

The butternut squash is roasted to perfection with a smoky chipotle sauce. Complementing this is a red bell pepper, adding a pop of color and a hint of sweetness. The black beans add a protein punch and earthy undertones. And let’s not forget the Chipotle Chili Crema, a velvety blend of vegan yogurt, chipotle peppers, and a hint of maple sweetness, which ties it all together. To make this dish even more of a hit, garnish it with fresh cilantro and pumpkin seeds, providing a burst of fresh flavor and a satisfying crunch, respectively.

So whether you’re in a pinch for a weeknight dinner or having company for a delicious meal in; these Roasted Butternut Squash Black Bean Tacos offer you all the things and are always an easy option!
