Southwest Sweet Potato Nachos! (paleo, gluten-free & dairy-free!)

Nacho Average Nachos. I mean it. Crispy sweet potato rounds take centre stage over traditional tortilla chips making for a hearty and nourishing spin on the classic appetizer. They’re covered in creamy avocado slice, fresh and zesty homemade salsa, sliced jalapeños and the best chorizo and ground beef hash. This is a recipe that comes together in a whim, is easy to love, and you’ll make time and time again. Perfect for sharing- but you may not want to!

Loaded Sweet Potato Skins

Let me ask you- is there anything sweet potato can’t do? This unassuming vegetable has become a clean eating superstar.

Tricky business, considering they’re sweeter than white spuds BUT- they’re lower in sugar, lower in carbs, have less calories and 400% of your daily vitamin A intake.

Taste-wise, it will engulf you, too. 😉
