Try using thinly sliced sweet potatoes instead of tortilla chips for a healthier version of chicken nachos. I made these for my family over the Super Bowl and they were a hit. With ingredients like sweet potatoes, cooked chicken, cheese, jalapenos, olives, and more, they will be the hit of any party.
Ingredients
- Sweet potatoes washed and sliced into 1/4-inch rounds
- Olive oil
- Salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste
- Chipotle chili powder

- Jalapeño, sliced
- Black olives (I used a small can)
- Fresh cilantro or parsley
- Avocado, pit removed and diced
- Roma tomatoes, diced
- Radishes, thinly sliced
- Sour cream or Greek yogurt for serving
Step-by-Step Instructions
