Instructions
- For the sweet potato chips: Preheat oven to 250F and position oven racks in the center of the oven. Melt the coconut oil in a saucepan.
- Rinse and dry your sweet potatoes and slice them into rounds. Use a mandolin slicer if you have one - it will make for much crispier chips.
- Toss slices in melted coconut oil to lightly coat, then sprinkle with salt. Lay out in a single layer on parchment paper and gently transfer the sheets directly onto the oven racks.
- Bake for a total of 2 hours. After about 1 hour, rotate parchment so that the front and back get more even cooking and flip chips.
- Remove once crisp and golden brown. Some may feel a little tender in the middle but take them out and let them rest for 10 minutes or so to crisp up more before serving.
- Meanwhile, prepare the guacamole: Chop tomatoes and cilantro. Peel and dice onions. Remove pit and peel avocados.
- Place avocado, lime juice, and seasonings in large mixing bowl and mash until combined.
- Add remaining ingredients to the bowl and stir with a mixing spoon until well combined.
- Set aside for 30 minutes.
- For the salsa: Peel and roughly chop onion. Chop cilantro. Deseed the jalapeno. Drain liquid from diced tomatoes.
- Place all ingredients in food processor and pulse until desired consistency is reached.
- Transfer to fridge until assembly time.
- For nachos: Brown the ground beef in a pan over medium heat. Sprinkle with cumin, sea salt and chili powder.
- Place the sweet potato chips on a plate, and serve topped with the prepared ground beef, guacamole, and salsa. Enjoy.
