When you are on a gut and hormone reset protocol, gluten or any processed type foods need to be on hold, which is me right now (working on a hypo-thyroid and some other gut related results), so this morning I remembered SWEET POTATO TOAST!!
Of course, how could I forget!
So, I made it...and it was gooooood, real good!
The recipe is below, you can go savoury or sweet, whatever tickles your sweet potato topping fancies!
Sweet Potato Toast
Serve: 2-3 slices per person
Time: 30-minutes, includes prep, cook and on the plate (if your slices are already done, it won't take long to add your toppings)
INGREDIENTS
1 large sweet potato
Toppings of choice
METHOD
Turn oven on to 190C or 380F
Cut off ends of sweet potato, then cut into 1/2 inch slices.
A light brush with oil, on base of oven tray and on the sweet potato slices.
Cook for around 20-minutes, turning once, until cooked but not mushy.
Store what you don't use in an airtight container in the fridge, popping in the toaster (or under a grill) to warm up before adding your toppings.
TOPPINGS
You can go sweet or savoury, or have one of both like I have in the image above.
Ideas for toppings:
Mashed avocado + lime, poached egg, sesame seeds, micro-herbs and fresh chilli.
Mashed avocado, salt + pepper, squeeze of fresh lemon, boiled egg an sauerkraut
