Sometimes, you just can’t beat a little bit of crunch in a salad. Instead of croutons use the addition of sweet potato crisps, they add an element of sweetness with a delicious crunch!
Mango & Sweet Potato Crisp Salad
To Make the Crisps
Preheat oven 160°C/325°F/Gas Mark 3
Ingredients:
1 med sweet potato
Method:
Wash and peel/skin sweet potato. We are only using the peel/skin for the crisps (you can cook the sweet potato to make some purée.)
Place the peel/skin in a separate bowl and mix 1 T melted coconut oil and pinch Himalayan salt until all is coated. Lay out on a tray lined with baking paper and bake in oven for 10-20 minutes being careful not to cremate them!
Take out of oven and cool.
