Loaded Sweet Potato Nachos (Vegetarian)
These Sweet Potato Nachos are a really delicious alternative to nachos, made with whole foods! Easily customize them for kids, too!
Ingredients
- 3 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/4 inch rounds
- Avocado oil spray, or preferred cooking oil spay
- 1 can pinto beans, drained and rinsed
- 8 ounces refried beans
- 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded, plus more if desired (I used Trader Joe's Unexpected Cheddar Cheese)
- 1/4 cup red onion, finely diced
- 1 green onion, diced
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. If making Sweet Potato Nachos and Kid Nachos, line two baking sheets with parchment paper and spray lightly with avocado oil spray or drizzle with olive oil. If only making Sweet Potato Nachos, only prepare one baking sheet.
- Place prepped sweet potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet. Spray with a little avocado oil spray and bake them in the oven for about 15-20 minutes until they are cooked through and a tiny bit crispy.
- (If cooking Kid's Nachos) Meanwhile, prep the kids’ nachos by slicing the corn tortillas into triangles (about 8 triangles/slices per tortilla) and placing them in a single layer on the remaining baking sheet. Spray the tops lightly with avocado oil spray and bake in the oven for about 9 minutes (chips should be a little crispy, but not fully cooked).
- Take the sweet potato baking sheet out of the oven and top with pinto beans, dollops of refried beans, shredded cheese, red onion, and green onions. If making Kid's Nachos, top with dollops of refried beans and shredded cheese. Place both trays back in the oven for 3-5 minutes, until the cheese is melted.
- Top with any of your favorite toppings and serve!
