Sweet potatoes are so delicious and are packed with nutrients! I’m sure you’ve heard about their many benefits. Looking for more ways to include sweet potatoes in your diet? These 5 high-protein options are some easy ideas to get started with and will keep you full for hours!

Let’s get started:

Choose sweet potatoes that are heavy for their sizes and don’t have blemishes or mould on them. I’ve used American and Japanese sweet potatoes which are high in antioxidants and are generally healthier than than the normal sweet potatoes.

Ingredients:

  1. 2 large sweets potatoes

Wash, peel and slice them vertically into 1/4″ thick slices. Drizzle a few drops of olive oil on the potatoes. Next, you can either toast or roast them for 10-15 minutes 220ÂșC. If you are toasting, toast on high heat twice or you can roast until they are tender and slightly browned.

First toast: Hummus, Avocado and Hemp seeds toast:

For the Guacamole, just mash avocado and mix with salt, pepper, lime juice and some chopped jalapeños, spring onion and coriander leaves. Isn’t it easy and healthy?
