Spicy Roasted Sweet Potato Spirals with Guacamole

My sister-in-law bought me a KitchenAid spiralizer attachment for my stand mixer this Christmas. Initially I had put it on my wish list with thoughts of making lots of zucchini noodles to swap out in some of my favorite pasta dishes. As soon as I opened my present though, I had to try it out and the only vegetable I had on hand was sweet potatoes. Naturally my impatient self started spiralizing them all up because I couldn’t wait to see the results with each of the attachments.

After, I figured out the perfect attachment for my ideal noodle size, I started dreaming up all the possibilities. First thing on my list was to roast up some sweet potatoes for a crispy treat. After soaking, salting and roasting these beauties the only natural thing to do was to top them with a big old dollop of Guacamole!

These were seriously one of the favorite things I have eaten in a very long time! So simple, healthy and absolutely delicious. A squeeze of lime was the finishing touch for a zesty dish. These would easily stand on their own for a hearty Meatless Monday dish or they would make a great snack or side dish. No matter the excuse, I promise you won’t be disappointed with this dish!

I only wish we had some more football games on Sundays for the perfect excuse to whip up a batch of these Spicy Roasted Sweet Potato Spirals with Guacamole!
