These vegan sweet potato nachos<\/strong> are the ultimate, wholesome answer to the classic Tex-Mex favorite. Instead of tortilla chips, roasted sweet potato slices take center stage, piled high with black beans, fresh avocado, and a creamy vegan nacho cheese sauce. They're vegan, gluten-free, and so delicious you'll forget they're actually good for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I have a serious soft spot for sweet potatoes \u2014 in chili<\/a>, baked into a gratin<\/a>, you name it, I'm in. And loaded nachos? Also a forever favorite of mine. So really, it was only a matter of time before the two ended up on the same plate together, and I haven't regretted it for a second.<\/p>\n\n\n\n These vegan sweet potato nachos aren't just a total stunner on the table \u2014 they're also wholesome, endlessly versatile,<\/strong> and come together faster than you'd think.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I always top mine with a veggie-loaded cheese sauce, fresh avocado or a generous dollop of guacamole, red onions, and black beans. But jalape\u00f1os, salsa, scallions, or vegan sour cream? Anything goes. The more, the better.<\/p>\n\n\n[feast_advanced_jump_to]\n\n\n You'll need three components for these sweet potato nachos: sweet potato rounds<\/strong>, a good vegan nacho cheese sauce<\/strong>, and your favorite toppings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n See recipe card for quantities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Want extra-crispy sweet potato chips instead of soft rounds? Preheat your oven to 300\u00b0F (150\u00b0C)<\/strong> and use a mandoline <\/strong>to slice the sweet potatoes paper-thin and even. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Toss with oil and salt, then spread in a single layer across two parchment-lined baking sheets \u2014 don't let them overlap<\/strong>. Bake for 30\u201340 minutes<\/strong>, flipping halfway through, and keep an eye on them, since the exact time depends on your slices and your oven.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n These loaded sweet potato nachos are best enjoyed right away, once assembled.
