Directions

Sweet Potato Nachos

Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, mix the sweet potato rounds with the olive oil, salt, pepper and spices.
Spread on the prepared baking sheet and place in preheated oven to bake for 20 minutes, until tender and lightly browned.
While they're baking, prepare the sauce.
When the sweet potatoes are ready, transfer them to a plate and top them with chunks of avocado, red beans, sunflower seeds and green onions.
Drizzle with creamy cashew sauce.

Creamy Cashew Sauce

Soak the cashews overnight, or for at least 30 minutes, in warm water.
Drain (discarding the soaking water), rinse and put in the food processor.
Add the rest of the ingredients and mix until smooth and creamy.
