Ingredients
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400°F.
Wash and dry sweet potatoes. Cut into small 1/2″ square pieces and place on a baking pan. Spread evenly.
Slowly drizzle olive oil over the top. Do not worry about covering each potato.
With your hands, flip the potatoes over on the pan and make sure that the olive oil covers each one lightly. Make sure to evenly spread on the pan.
Lightly sprinkle 1/4 teaspoon sea salt over the top. Place in the oven for 40-45 minutes until the tops are lightly browned.
Cut the avocado in half and remove the pit.
Scoop out the avocado and place in a blender.
Add the garlic, lime juice and and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
Blend until somewhat smooth and creamy.
Slowly add the water, until very smooth, then slowly drizzle in the olive oil. Blend until well mixed and creamy.
