Sweet potato...NACHOS?

In our family, figuring out dinner isn't always easy. Mommy is a vegetarian, Daddy is practically a carnivore, and Baby only likes to eat food that she can pick up and feed herself. On top of that, we want to be healthy. And of course, it has to taste good!

That's why I was so excited to figure out this recipe! It is a healthy version of a comfort food, but it tastes just as good- if not better! Swapping roasted sweet potato slices for chips adds vitamin A, vitamin C, manganese, fiber, etc! Using fresh ingredients is delicious but also reduces the processed foods in our diet. Cutting it up small makes it perfect for baby! She couldn't stop saying, "MMMMM!," while eating it! And neither could we ;)

Here's the recipe:
