These were sensational — Ross loved them!

Instead of using crisps as the nacho base, we swapped them for sweet potatoes.
✅ Sweet potatoes are a nutrient-dense, complex carbohydrate that helps support more stable blood sugar levels.
Unlike crisps, which are a simple carbohydrate, sweet potatoes contain fiber that slows digestion. During the crisp-making process, much of the fiber is stripped away, meaning the starch is rapidly broken down into glucose — leading to quick spikes in blood sugar and insulin.
A simple swap, but a big win for both flavour and nourishment.
