Warmed Sweet Potato w/Avocado Lime Spread




After making a batch of Avocado Lime Spread for my Quinoa Veggie Burgers, I had plenty of spread left over and didn't want any to go to waste so I looked around to see what else it would pair well with. I decided to bake a sweet potato and it turns out they are the perfect combination of tangy and sweet and can be a great snack, or a perfect little side dish! 

So easy too!


Warmed Sweet Potato w/Avocado Lime Spread: 

Organic Sweet Potato(s) - the quantity will depend on how much you want to make. Consider 1/2 sweet potato per person.

For the spread:

2 organic avocados
1 organic garlic clove, minced
1 organic jalapeƱo, chopped
juice from 2 organic limes
1/2 tbsp freshly chopped organic cilantro (more to taste)
1/8 tsp organic cumin

Simply bake sweet potatoes (skin on) at 350 degrees for about 40 minutes or until soft.

While the potatoes are cooking, prepare the Easy Avocado Lime Spread and set aside.




Once soft, peel the skin off (it should be very easy to remove at this point) and then slice into 1/4-1/2 inch slices. Top with spread and enjoy!
