It’s football season and I for one love to watch the game with my husband and we love to chow down on munchies. BUT we like to eat clean. These Clean Eating Sweet Potato Nachos hit the spot for us. I like to make them in individual dishes so we can each put our own ingredients on top. I like it hot! ðŸ˜‹ Bring on the jalapenos! These sweet potato chicken nachos give you the protein you need to stay fuller longer. This is a smart appetizer choice.

Black bean and sweet potato nachos are so tasty and filling. If you don’t like black beans use another high fiber bean! Sweet potato vs potato? Choose the sweet potato! The benefits of sweet potato for weight loss are encouraging if you use them in place of the potato. We are excited to be working on a clean eating food list and a 7 day clean eating meal plan.

    I love sweet potatoes! My favorite recipe for it would be mashed sweet potatoes but it's awesome to try this as well. It's one way to get my kids to eat more of it, since it's "nachos". Thanks for the recipe!
