Farm Celebration Nachos

Ingredients

Base Layer

  • 5-6 sweet potatoes scrubbed and cut into wedges, dressed with about 2 tbsp oil, 1 tsp apple cider vinegar, salt, pepper, cumin, and a bit of cayenne if you're into it, then baked at 350 until brightened, soft, and maybe a bit crispy at the thin edges (about 45 mins)
  • 2 cups or so tortilla chips

Toppings Before Baking

  • 1-2 red and green peppers diced up small
  • 5-8 green onions chopped
  • 1-2 onions diced and fried
  • 5-8 mushrooms sliced and fried, maybe with their onion friends
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella
  • 1 lb ground beef fried up and seasoned however you'd like but may we recommend a bit of soya sauce/tamari, some cayenne and/or paprika, and salt and pepper?
  • 1/4 cup sundried tomatoes (or Slow-Roasted Tomatoes - linked above - from the freezer if you did a bit of that earlier in the season!) chopped
  • 1/4 cup black or green olives chopped

Toppings After Baking

  • 1 handful Quick Pickled Watermelon Radish *follow recipe linked above*
  • 1/2 cup yoghurt thinned with a bit of lemon juice and water, seasoned with salt
  • tahini drizzled, to taste (thinned if necessary)
  • salsa
  • avocado

Instructions

  1. bake the sweet potatoes, fry up the onions and mushrooms and ground beef (all together if you don't need to divide for tastes)

    if you need to quick pickle your radishes, do that now too - they're better the longer they've been pickled, but even an hour will be enough!

  2. chop, dice, etc. all the veggie toppings, grate cheese. lay them all out on chopping boards or bowls or whathaveyou

  3. lay out some baking trays, with some parchment paper if you want to make clean up easy

  4. lay out some tortilla chips amongst the baked sweet potato wedges, and top the trays however you like!

  5. bake at 350 until cheese is well melted, broil cautiously right at the end if you want a bit of boil and bubble

  6. top with avocados and/or pickled radishes, and drizzle with tahini and yoghurt or keep those to the side for dunking along with the salsa

  7. eat! **you will need napkins!**
