Turkey Sweet Potato Nachos (Gluten-Free Super Bowl Nachos)

Roasted sweet potato rounds replace traditional chips for a gluten-free, fiber-rich nacho base that’s hearty, flavorful, and perfect for sharing.

Ingredients

For the chips:

• 2 large sweet potatoes, thinly sliced (leave skin on)
• 2 Tablespoons avocado oil, divided

For the Jalapeño lime sauce:

• 1/ 3 cup 2% plain Greek yogurt
• 2 Tablespoons pickled jalapeños, minced
• Juice of 1 lime

For the toppings:

• 1 white onion, chopped
• 3 cloves garlic, chopped
• 1 red bell pepper, chopped
• 1 small bunch fresh cilantro, leaves picked and stems chopped
• 1 pound lean ground turkey breast (or pastured organic beef, bison, or wild game)
• 1 Tablespoon chili powder
• 1 Tablespoon cumin
• ½ cup filtered water
• 2 Tablespoons tomato paste
• 2 radishes, thinly sliced
• Sea salt and black pepper, to taste
• 2 ounces Cotija cheese crumbles

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees and set the rack on the highest position.

In a small bowl, make the jalapeño lime sauce. Combine the Greek yogurt, jalapeños and lime juice and set aside.

Toss the sliced sweet potato slices in 1 ½ Tablespoons of avocado oil and spread out on a lined baking sheet (you may need to use more than one, making sure to space the sweet potato out so that it gets crispy from baking rather than soggy). Place in the oven and bake 18-20 minutes, turning halfway through. Check the texture toward the end of baking and add a few minutes if needed to get the “chips” crispy.

Sauté the onions, garlic, bell pepper and cilantro in the remaining ½ Tablespoon avocado oil until the onions are translucent. Add the turkey and brown it, breaking up with a spoon. Add the spices and tomato paste, cook for 2 minutes. Add ½ cup water to the pan. Season salt and pepper to taste.

To serve, layer the sweet potato chips on the bottom, then top with the sautéed turkey mixture, jalapeño lime sauce, radishes, cilantro leaves and Cotija cheese.

Serves 4

Gluten-Free Pizza Bites (Healthy Game Day Snack)

All the comfort of pizza in a gluten-free, bite-sized snack that’s crispy, melty, and guaranteed to disappear fast.

Ingredients

For the crust:

• 1½ cups finely ground almond flour
• 1 cup arrowroot flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• ½ teaspoon sea salt
• 2 eggs
• 2 Tablespoons olive oil
• 1-2 Tablespoons cold filtered water, as needed

For the pizza:

• Marinara sauce
• Italian seasoning
• Green onion, chopped
• Uncured pepperoni or turkey pepperoni, chopped
• Mozzarella cheese, shredded

Directions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Line a mu􀇱fin tin with silicone baking cups. Set aside.

In a medium bowl, add the almond flour, arrowroot flour, baking powder and salt. Mix until combined. Then add the eggs and olive oil. Add the cold water if needed, one tablespoon at a time. The final dough should be a slightly stickier biscuit-like dough.

Split the dough evenly between the 12 muffin cups (about 1 tablespoon each). Press the dough down into the cups using oiled hands or a spoon. Bake the crust for 10 minutes.

Once the crust is baked, remove from the oven and spread marinara sauce on the top of each of the 12 crusts. Next, sprinkle on Italian seasoning, green onion, pepperoni and mozzarella cheese. Bake the pizza bites for another 5 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the crust is slightly golden around the edges.

Allow the pizza bites to cool for 1-2 minutes before removing from the pan. Enjoy!

Servings: Makes 12 pizza bites; 2-3 bites per serving
