Description

This appetizer is delicious, healthy and so simple to make. It takes only a few ingredients and is done in under 30 minutes. Anyone I’ve ever made it for raves about it!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 sweet potatoes (about 6-7″ in length)
  • 1 Tbsp. avocado oil
  • 1 tsp. sea salt
  • 1/4 tsp. ground black pepper
  • 2 shallots, thinly sliced (rounds)
  • 1 tsp. ghee (or avocado oil)
  • 1/4 cup cilantro, chopped
  • 3 avocados, mashed

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit
  2. Slice the sweet potatoes into 1/2 inch round slices
  3. Place a piece of parchment paper on a large baking sheet
  4. Rub oil into the sweet potato slices and place them on the parchment. Season with salt and pepper.
  5. Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes
  6. While the potatoes are baking, prepare the shallots. Slice the shallots thinly into rounds.
  7. Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the ghee to the pan and saute the shallots until they caramelize to a light brown color, being careful not to burn them. Set aside.
  8. Chop the cilantro and mash up the avocado.
  9. Once the potatoes are done, let them cool for 5 minutes. Then, top them with the mashed avocado, the shallots and a pinch of cilantro. Plate and serve!
