Easy Sweet Potato Nachos

Ya'll did you know today is "National Nacho Day"!! What, what?!? Yummy!

Today marks the day people celebrate the creation of nachos from Northern Mexico. I don't know about you but I love nachos!  

One Friday I was craving nachos but wanted to make them somewhat healthier and not completely binge.  I had leftover ground turkey with peppers and onions from the night before to use as a topping.  So I quickly made them with sweet potatoes in the microwave. 




INGREDIENTS:

1 sweet potato 
1 tsp. of unsalted seasoning
1/2 tsp. of salt
1 can of coconut oil spray


1).  Thinly slice the sweet potato with either with a mandoline or a knife.


2).  Mix the sweet potato in a bowl with the seasonings.


3).  Place parchment paper on a plate. 

4).  Layout the sweet potato slices in a single layer.

5).  Lightly spray each side of the chip with coconut oil spray.


6).  Microwave on high for 3 1/2-4 minutes. Check the chips for crispness.


7).  If need be, reheat the chips at 30-second intervals until you have the desired crispness.  


** NOTE:  Each microwave is slightly different, so watch your chips to determine the best time for your microwave.  

Put your desired toppings on the chips and ENJOY!!
