1 Preheat oven to 400° F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
2 Place the sweet potatoes on the baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and toss with the chili powder and pinches of salt and pepper. Spread in a single layer on the baking sheet. Roast for 20 minutes, or until puffed, fragrant, and golden brown.
3 Make the avocado yogurt sauce: In a small food processor, combine the yogurt, avocado, garlic, lime juice, and a few generous pinches of salt and pepper. Pulse until smooth. Taste and adjust seasonings. Chill until ready to use.
4 Assemble the tacos in the tortillas with a scoop of the sauce, the roasted sweet potatoes, black beans, and desired toppings. Season to taste and serve with lime wedges for squeezing.
