Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 units medium sweet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 unit ripe avocado
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
- 0.5 cups cucumber, thinly sliced
- 1 unit tomato, sliced
- 0.25 cup red onion, thinly sliced
- 0.5 cups fresh spinach leaves
- 0.25 cups sprouts or microgreens
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash and peel the sweet potatoes. Slice them lengthwise into 1/4-inch thick slices to create the 'bread' for the sandwich.
Brush the sweet potato slices with olive oil on both sides and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle with a pinch of sea salt and pepper.
Bake the sweet potato slices for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are tender and slightly crispy.
While the sweet potatoes are baking, prepare the avocado spread. Scoop the avocado into a small bowl and mash it with a fork until smooth.
Add the lemon juice, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper to the avocado and mix well. Adjust the seasoning to taste.
Once the sweet potato slices are done baking, let them cool slightly.
Assemble the sandwich by spreading a generous layer of the avocado spread on one side of a sweet potato slice. Layer the cucumber slices, tomato, red onion, spinach leaves, and sprouts on top.
Place another sweet potato slice on top to complete the sandwich. Repeat for the second sandwich.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Whole30 Ultimate Veggie Sandwich!
