• 2 large Tomato
• 1 Jalapeño pepper
• 0.5 cup Cilantro
• 1 Lime
• 1 large Avocado

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Slice the sweet potatoes into thin rounds, about 1/4 inch thick. Try to keep them uniform for even baking.

Step 3

In a large bowl, toss the sweet potato slices with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon of salt until well coated.

Step 4

Arrange the slices in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Step 5

Bake for 20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the slices are crispy and golden brown.

Step 6

While the chips are baking, finely chop the onion and mince the garlic.

Step 7

In a skillet over medium heat, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Add the onion and garlic, and sauté until soft, about 5 minutes.

Step 8

Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook until browned. Drain any excess fat.

Step 9

Stir in the cumin, paprika, chili powder, and black pepper. Cook for an additional 2 minutes. Set aside.

Step 10

For the salsa, dice the tomatoes, finely chop the jalapeño (removing seeds for less heat), and chop the cilantro.

Step 11

In a bowl, combine the tomatoes, jalapeño, cilantro, juice of one lime, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Mix well and set aside.

Step 12

Peel and dice the avocado, and set aside for topping.

Step 13

To assemble, place the sweet potato chips on a serving platter. Top with the beef mixture, then spoon the fresh salsa over the top.

Step 14

Garnish with diced avocado and any remaining cilantro.

Step 15

Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious paleo-friendly nachos!
