What if we told you that toast doesn’t have to be made with bread? Here, you’ll get the same filling, tasty meal—using a sweet potato as the base. You can even cook the sweet potato slices ahead of time and simply reheat them when you want them.

Orange sweet potato (kumara)
100 g, (2 x 50g x 4mm thick slices), cut lengthways
Red onion

6 individual, finely chopped
Bocconcini
20 g, finely chopped
Fresh basil
2 tbs, finely chopped, plus extra to serve
Balsamic glaze
½ tsp
Instructions
1
Place sweet potato slices in a toaster, toast 2-3 times on the highest setting until potatoes are lightly browned and tender (flip slices each time for even toasting).

Meanwhile combine onion, tomato, bocconcini and basil in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Top sweet potato toasts with tomato mixture, extra basil leaves and drizzle balsamic glaze over the top.
