I’m always so proud of myself when I make a delicious VEGAN meal! This one screams Autumn!

Ingredients

3 large sweet potatoes, cut into teeny tiny bite sized chunks

1 can black beans, rinsed

1 can coconut milk

2 small acorn squashes

8-10 tortillas

Steps

Acorn Squash Sauce

Cut squash in half and remove seeds. Place in instant pot cut side up on a steamer basket with 1 cup water. Cook on high for 20 min with a slow release. When done cooking and cool enough to handle, scoop out the squash back into instant pot (with the cooking water) and mash until liquidy. Remove squash mash and set the instant pot to sauté and cook shallot  in olive oil until soft. Add mashed squash, salt, Garam masala seating, and 1/2 to 1 cup coconut milk and cook 15-20 minutes.
