SWEET POTATO NACHOS Ingredients: For the Potatoes: cooking spray 4 medium (about 7 oz each) sweet potatoes, skin on 1 tbsp olive oil 1 1/2 tsp paprika pinch cayenne pepper 1 tsp garlic powder Coarse salt and fresh-cracked pepper For topping: 1/2 bell pepper, sliced thin 1/3 cup sharp shredded cheddar cheese (I used Cabot) 1/2 cup Pepper Jack light cheese 1 medium scallion, chopped pickled jalapeño slices 4 tbsp tomato, diced small 1 tbsp chopped cilantro (optional) sliced black olives salsa, for dipping Directions: Heat the oven to 425°F. Lightly spray a baking sheet with oil. Cut the sweet potatoes in half, the place the cut side down on a cutting board and carefully cut each half into 3 equal sized wedges. This will give you 24 wedges total. In a large bowl, combine potatoes and oil; toss well. Season with paprika, cayenne, garlic powder, salt and pepper and toss to coat. Place potatoes in a single layer on the baking sheets and bake in the center of the oven, uncovered for about 9 to 10 minutes on each side. Remove from oven and place fries into four small oven-safe dishes (or one large dish for sharing), top with bell peppers, cheddar and jack cheese and return to oven for about 2 minutes, or until the cheese melts. Finish with scallions, jalapeño, tomato, cilantro and black olives. Serve with salsa on the side.
