_Sips coffee and gets comfy_
Ladies and gentlemen, let me introduce you to my absolute favorite midnight guilty pleasure – the Loaded Sweet Potato Nachos! Trust me, once you try these bad boys, you’ll never look at regular nachos the same way again.
Y’all, I discovered this recipe during one of those can’t-sleep-must-eat nights (we’ve all been there, right?), and honestly, it’s been my go-to comfort food ever since. The best part? It’s somewhat healthier than regular nachos, so you can totally justify this midnight snack! 😉
Here’s what you’ll need:
– 2 large sweet potatoes, thinly sliced
– Olive oil
– Taco seasoning
– Black beans (drained and rinsed)
– Shredded Mexican cheese blend
– Diced tomatoes
– Sliced jalapeños
– Diced avocado
– Sour cream
– Fresh cilantro
Now, honey, let me walk you through this heavenly creation:
1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (because we’re fancy like that!)
2. Slice those sweet potatoes THIN (like, paper-thin if you can manage it)
3. Toss them in olive oil and taco seasoning
4. Arrange them on a baking sheet (don’t overlap them – they need their personal space!)
5. Bake for about 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through

Now, where were we? Oh yes!
1. Once your sweet potato slices are crispy, pile on your black beans and cheese
2. Pop it back in the oven for 5 minutes until the cheese is all melty and gorgeous
3. Top with tomatoes, jalapeños, avocado, a dollop of sour cream, and cilantro
And voilà! You’ve got yourself a midnight snack that’s totally Instagram-worthy (not that you should be on your phone that late, but who am I to judge? 😏).
The combination of sweet and spicy is absolutely _chef’s kiss_. Plus, the creamy avocado and sour cream balance everything perfectly. I’m not kidding when I say this recipe has saved me from many hangry midnight moments!
