Grilled Halloumi & Sweet Potato Tacos
Tacos are one of our favorite dishes for easy entertaining, and for this recipe, we’re mixing things up and creating a vegetarian option featuring one of the world’s most popular grilling cheeses: halloumi. This Greek cheese is known for being squeaky, with a springy, elastic texture that makes it ideal for searing on the grill. With a profile that’s bright and salty, it pairs perfectly with roasted sweet potatoes and a creamy sauce made from fresh avocado, lime, cilantro, and jalapeño.
