After being diagnosed with IC (interstitial cystitis), finding something to eat that I enjoy is becoming quite an ordeal. Everyone says, “just adjust your recipes”, but that can be easier said than done. Hence, I shall post recipes that are IC friendly, that have been adapted or have been found online to share with others. I hope you like the recipes as much as I do. :)

Sweet Potato Street Tacos
Prep Time: 30 minutes
Makes: 12 tacos
Ingredients:
12 street tacos (yellow corn without problem ingredients)
1 Tbsp olive oil, divided
1 small sweet potato, peeled and diced into 1cm cubes
1 red bell pepper diced
1 cup of corn (can be frozen)
1⁄2 onion, chopped (if tolerated or omit)
1 cup pinto beans, rinsed/drained
1 tsp cumin (if tolerated)
1⁄2 tsp oregano
1 tsp garlic powder
Salt, to taste (if tolerated)
1⁄2 cup cilantro, chopped (if tolerated)
1 1⁄2 cup mild cheddar cheese, shredded
1 1⁄2 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
Directions:
Heat half of the olive oil on medium heat. Add sweet potatoes and sauté until soft. Remove from pan to a bowl.
Add the rest of the olive oil to the pan with the onions and bell peppers and cook until soft. Add the frozen corn, beans, the reserved sweet potatoes, and all of the seasonings. Saute until the corn and beans are warmed through. Transfer mixture to a bowl.
Wipe the pan clean and add a couple of tortillas to the pan. Add 1 Tbsp cheddar cheese to half of each tortilla. Top each with a Tbsp of the vegetable mixture, then add 1 Tbsp the mozzarella cheese. Fold over and cook on both sides until the cheese is melted. Repeat with all tortillas. Serve immediately.
