Ingredients

1 large sweet potato, peeled
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp cracked black pepper
Pinch of salt
1 1/2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
200 g tinned black beans, drained and rinsed
200 g tinned four bean mix, drained and rinsed
100 g shredded mozzarella
8 solanato/grape tomatoes, quartered
2 tbsp pickles, roughly chopped
1/3 red onion, diced
2 spring onions, whites and greens, finely chopped
1 avocado, mashed
2 tsp lemon juice
3 tbsp cream cheese/sour cream/greek yoghurt
Parsley to garnish

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 200°C fan forced, and line a medium baking dish (20x28cm).
Cut the sweet potato into quarters, then thinly slice into half-discs. Add to a bowl and season with paprika, onion powder, pepper, salt and EVO oil, tossing to coat well.
Lay sweet potato in a single layer in the baking dish and cook for 20 mins, until softened.
Remove from the oven and spread the black beans, four bean mix and shredded mozzarella over the sweet potatoes. Cook for a further 8-10 mins until the cheese is melted and slightly brown.
Remove from the oven and top with tomatoes, pickles, onions, and spring onions.
Add the lemon juice to the mashed avocado and stir through. Add to the nachos in dollops, along with cream cheese/sour cream/greek yoghurt.
Garnish with parsley and serve.
