Sweet Potato and Avocado Bites

These are wonderful little appetizers.  They  are easy, look pretty,  and are super tasty. The recipe calls for radish sprouts but the market didn’t have any so I used chopped chives which works fine but the curly sprouts on top looks really pretty if you can find them. I got this recipe from a blog called “Blissful Basil.”  I highly recommend you check it out, the photos are lovely and there are lots of beautiful recipes to explore.

Ingredients

  • 2 medium sweet potatoes, scrubbed and sliced into ¼-inch thick pieces
  • ½ teaspoon cumin
  • ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
  • sea salt, to taste
  • 1½ teaspoons olive oil
  • 1 large avocado, pitted
  • ¼ cup fresh lime juice
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • 5 cherry tomatoes, sliced into ⅛-inch thick pieces
  • ½ cup radish sprouts
     

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. Add the sliced sweet potatoes, cumin, paprika, olive oil, and sea salt to a bowl. Toss to coat.
  3. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spread the sweet potato slices out into a single layer. Bake for 15 minutes or until tender.
  4. Scoop the flesh of the avocado into a medium bowl. Add the lime juice and ½ teaspoon sea salt and mash together with the back of a fork.
  5. Spread the sweet potato slices out of a serving platter or tray. Top each slice with a dollop of smashed avocado, one tomato slice, and a sprinkling of radish sprouts.
  6. Serve and enjoy!
