It’s good to be home. We got in late last night… a shower never felt so good and my bed has never felt so soft. Yet I still woke up around 5am, in the dark, ready to start the day in some other time zone. Hours and multiple cups of coffee later, I’m still in my pajamas, the puppy is in my lap… and I feel like quite the energetic insomniac.
Did you happen to see our kitchen tour yesterday?
We shot that just before we left for our trip along with this recipe. The heat here in Austin is just beginning to lift and refreshing cool(ish) breezes are are starting to feel like fall. Technically it’s still in the 90′s, but relative to what it was… it feels like sweet potato time.
The glaze in this is similar to a Japanese one I make for eggplant and cod (miso + mirin + sugar – brush, then broil). I altered it by using maple to make sort of an asian-fall-fusion taco. And I served it with a sauce similar to this one.
Top your tacos with some toasted pumpkin seeds for crunch and some slices of creamy avocado. And a good squeeze of lime. (For protein, feel free to add in some black beans, or serve some on the side).

“I feel like quite the energetic insomniac.” That would be me, like every day, lately

So happy you’re home safe & sound. Nothing like your own bed after traveling in a foreign land.
I love the addition of pumpkin seeds–such a great touch!
Yes! Another way to incorporate sweet potatoes. Love all the taco options on your site!
Your kitchen is absolutely stunning! Can I move in? Sweet potato tacos with a little kick of miso sound fantastic for this time of year. Looking forward to hearing more about your trip!
Yum, I saw these yesterday, They look amazing and the photos were great. Congrats on the feature, so exciting.
Image #1 looks great. I love your tacos interpretations. They are very vegetarian friendly and seasonal.
I loved seeing your kitchen; it’s just so beautiful and light. It really reminds me of your blog actually – it’s clearly the perfect space for you! Love the combination of flavours in these tacos and especially that miso glaze!
wow your kitchen is AMAZING. I love every single bit of it.
I use that same miso marinade for fish too, but I’d never thought of using it with sweet potatoes. I’ll have to try it!
I want to eat tacos every night right now – yours first! Such pretty pictures, too.
