Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Loaded Sweet Potato Nachos
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Wash and roughly peel sweet potatoes, then slice into 1/8 inch thick rounds.
  2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread sweet potato rounds in a single layer, drizzle with cooking oil, sprinkle with garlic powder, salt, and optional chili powder, then toss to coat evenly.
  3. Bake for about 20 minutes, flipping halfway. For crispiness, switch on the broiler for the last 1-2 minutes.
  4. Remove from oven, layer with black beans and shredded cheese, and return to oven until cheese melts (about 3-5 minutes).
  5. Top with salsa, diced avocado, and sour cream or Greek yogurt. Add jalapeños, green onions, cilantro, or corn if desired. Serve immediately.

Notes

Choose sweet potatoes that are uniformly shaped for even cooking. Keep an eye during broiling to avoid burning. Allow sweet potato chips to cool slightly before adding toppings to maintain crunchiness.
