Beef Tacos with Sweet Potato Slaw

This recipe is both a success....and a flop. It's a success in that both things tasted great, however the pairing is just not right. They would both be good paired with something else, so I decided to post them anyway, with that disclosure.
I'll start with the tacos, which are pretty self explanatory! You will need: 1 lb ground beef (or turkey) 2 garlic cloves 1 small vidalia onion, finely diced 1 teaspoon chili powder 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon pepper Gluten free corn tortillas ice burg lettuce baby spinach sliced avacado shredded cheese diced tomato Brown the ground beef with finely chopped garlic cloves and onion. Add seasoning. Once cooked top with your favorite toppings (or use mine listed above!) Sweet Potato Slaw 1 large sweet potato, diced 1/2 head of purple cabbage, shredded 1/2 head of green cabbage, shredded 1/2 cup carrots, shredded 2 tablespoons olive oil 1 teaspoon brown sugar Mix all ingredients in small roasting pan and roast at 400 degrees for about an hour (or until sweet potato fully baked). This was good, however too sweet to go along side a taco.
