Loaded Sweet Potato Avocado Toast

I know – avocado toast is SO over, and even if it weren’t, you don’t need a recipe for it. This trend might be on it’s way out, but you’ll still find me (and pretty much everyone else on Instagram) happily smashing & snapping away.

I usually keep mine simple – avocado, lemon, salt, pepper, and a sprinkle of hemp seeds. It’s a perfect combo that doesn’t need to be messed with, but since this was “dinner toast” for us one night last week, I thought I’d get a little fancier with the toppings. (Also, Jack is still claiming that he doesn’t like avocado, but if I hide it a little, no complaints).

Loaded Sweet Potato Avocado Toast ingredients

This chart of ingredients looks a little fussy, but most of these are pantry staples and items that I happened to have on hand. For example, the adobo sauce (our favorite addition here) comes from a leftover can of chipotles that I had previously opened for this chili recipe. So feel free to use and re-use whatever you like. Send me your winning combos and, together, let’s keep this trend alive!

  1. Avo on toast with never get old! Works for every meal of the day, plus snacks. I love mine with nutritional yeast and sesame seeds sprinkled on top…that’s if it makes it onto the toast…

  2. I need to stop reading your recipes when I’m hungry! Seriously! These look like a great lunch!

  3. Avocado toast could never be over! I never get tired of seeing new, unique ways to make a (now) classic combo into something interesting. Looks delicious.

    I am obsessed with avocado toast and eat it almost daily. I like avocado mashed with olive oil, garlic salt, and a bit of fresh lemon juice. I top it with chocolate cherry tomatoes and chives and then drizzle some siracha on top.

  7. Love it! In the summertime I could eat avocado toast with tomatoes, olive oil and Maldon salt every day.

  8. I will never ever tire of avocado toast! I love sprinkling homemade dukkah on mine. But this sweet potato version sounds incredible! That adobo, must try.
