Ingredients

  • 4 sweet potatoes
  • 1 tbsp avocado oil (optional)
  • 2 avocados
  • 1/2 lemon , juiced
  • pinch sea salt
  • 2 green onions
  • 2 cups white beans

Signature Citrus Tahini Dressing

  • 2 tbsp tahini
  • 1/2 lemon , juiced
  • pinch sea salt
  • water , to thin (I used about 2 tbsp)

Instructions

  • Turn oven to 400F/200C. Using a fork, poke small holes in the sweet potatoes going all the way round, about 1-inch apart. Line the baking tray with parchment paper, and place the sweet potatoes on top. Bake for 40 minutes, or until cooked through.
  • Mash the avocado in a bowl with lemon juice and a pinch of sea salt. Finely chop the green onion.
  • To make the citrus tahini dressing: combine the tahini, lemon juice and a pinch sea salt in a bowl. Mix together to combine, then add splashes of water until you've reached desired consistency, (I used about 2 tbsp).
  • Cut the sweet potatoes in half and fill with white beans, and mashed avocado. Sprinkle with the green onion, and drizzle with citrus tahini dressing.
