Ingredients
  

  • 4 sweet potatoes roasted

Crispy Chickpea Croutons

  • 1 15 oz. can chickpeas rinsed
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt
  • 3 tsp avocado oil

Toppings

  • 1 handful cilantro, chopped
  • 2 tsp toasted sesame seeds or gamasio

Tahini Sauce

  • 2 tbsp tahini
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp water
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1/8 tsp cayenne pepper optional

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 425F.
  • Clean and dry 4 medium to sized sweet potatoes and place them onto a baking sheet.
  • Roast for 45 minutes to 1 hour or so. This may vary depending on the size of your sweet potatoes. Once you can cut through the sweet potato easily with a knife and they're tender then they're done.
  • Into a medium sized bowl, add all ingredients for the "crispy chickpea croutons" .
  • Mix together until well coated.
  • Place into an air fryer and cook at 385F for 10-15 minutes depending on desired crispiness. Shake halfway through.
  • To make the tahini dressing, add your tahini dressing ingredients to personal blender and blend until smooth. You can also add all ingredients to a bowl and mix with a fork or whisk until smooth.
  • To assemble, slice your sweet potatoes lengthwise down the middle and fill with equal parts chickpea croutons, avocado, tahini sauce and top with cilantro and sesame seeds.
  • You can costumize this dish by adding any additional toppings, I also love to add kalamata olives and/or sriracha for a different variation. Enjoy!
