Presenting…Sweet Potato Toast (3 Ways)!
Everyone is going nuts for avocado toast these days, so we’ve given it a healthy makeover by serving it on toasted slices of sweet potato! For those who are sensitive to avocado or aren’t as fond of it as we are, we’ve also topped our sweet potato slices with our fan-favorite Beet Hummus. And for those who are craving a sweeter snack, we’ve made a version topped with almond butter, banana, and cinnamon. Is your mouth watering yet? This recipe is one of our many 80:20 Lifestyle recipes! We’ve developed our 80:20 Lifestyle Program to maintain our vibrancy throughout the year. We eat consciously 80% of the time, then live life to the fullest, free from restrictions, the other 20%. Are you ready to get your brunch on?
