Any-Way-You-Want-It Sweet Potato Toast
If you love toast, pizza, crackers and sandwiches (hello, join the club) but you’re trying to watch gluten or refined carbs, the L&B Nourish team has a treat for you — sweet potato toast. We cut the sweet potatoes into nice, thick slabs and toast them ‘til they’re soft, lightly caramelized and naturally sweet. They make a surprisingly hearty base for toppings, and you can load them up with all kinds of goodies.

Any-Way-You-Want-It Sweet Potato Toast
Prep Time5 Minutes
Servings2
Cook Time35 Minutes
Ingredients
1 sweet potato, washed, cut into ½-inch thick slices, lengthwise
1 cup L&B Organic Small Batch Tomato Basil Pasta Sauce, warmed
4 ounces fresh mozzarella, sliced or crumbled
¼ cup fresh herbs, chopped
Directions
- Place the sweet potato slabs on your toaster oven’s baking sheet, and toast on high until soft. It may take 4 to 6 rounds of toasting. Note: if you don’t have a toaster oven, or you’re making sweet potato toast for the whole family, you can bake the slabs in the oven at 400 F for 25 to 30 minutes, flipping halfway through.
- Remove the sweet potatoes from the toaster oven. Spoon the pasta sauce over them, and sprinkle or layer on the fresh mozzarella.
- Return the sweet potatoes to the toaster oven (or oven), and bake until the cheese is melty and starting to bubble, about 5 minutes.
- Transfer the sweet potatoes to plates, garnish with fresh herbs and serve.
