Sweet Potato Nachos

[alisonegilbert]

Wanted to share because I had a major win with dinner tonight!

I wasn't sure if sweet potato nachos would be in the spirit of the Whole30, but since I was just looking for a vehicle for all my taco fillings, not trying to recreate tortilla chips, I decided it was ok.

I made baked sweet potato chips and topped them with seasoned ground beef, homemade guac, amazing fresh salsa from Trader Joe's, olives, and lettuce. Soooo good! A little more labor-intensive than I'd do again on a weeknight, but worth it!

Do you mind sharing 1) how thin did you slice you sw potatoes, and 2) how long/temp you baked?

Mine never turn out and your's look amazing!!

@alisonegilbert I'm also intrigued for oven temp and cooking time for the sweet potato chips.  I recently got a mandolin slicer so I kind of want to try baking up some chips - I usually just do diced roasted sweet potatoes because I can't get them thin enough.

For what it's worth, here's a recipe for plantain chips from my mostest favorite Whole30 recipe creator (well, maybe a tie with Mel Joulwan): https://www.paleorunningmomma.com/paleo-homemade-plantain-chips/.

@____Emily____ sorry I didn't see this earlier! This is the recipe I used: https://gatherforbread.com/baked-sweet-potato-chips/

I think I ended up doing a little less time in the oven than it called for.

You could use an air fryer too.
