Pulled Pork Sweet Potato Nachos

Nachos are one of my favorite comfort foods. Traditionally I use blue corn or regular corn chips as the base, but to reduce the sodium and up the nutritional value, I decided to use sweet potatoes. The result is the perfect blend of sweet and salty. If you want to add a good kick, add thinly sliced serrano pepper on top. I believe this meal will continue to be on rotation at our house because it’s so delicious and simple!



1. Preheat oven to 400. Coat a large sheet pan lightly with olive oil. Place potato slices in a single layer on the baking sheet; drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Bake for 10 minutes, flip and bake for 8-10 minutes longer, or until crisp (watch them carefully so they don’t burn).

 

 

 

2. Top the potatoes with pork, corn, red pepper and cheese and bake for 5 minutes longer, or until the cheese melts.

 

3. Serve garnished with avocado and sour cream.
