Sweet Potato Pizza Bites | The Food Dragon Game Day Recipes

Writer: Brian LlorenteBrian Llorente


Ingredients:


  • 2 large sweet potatoes, sliced into 1⁄4 inch thick rounds

  • 1 tablespoon avocado or olive oil (note that using avo oil because it has a higher smoke point for the grill and won’t burn)

  • 1⁄2 teaspoon salt

  • 1⁄2 teaspoon black pepper

  • 1⁄2 cup tomato sauce or marinara

  • 1 cup organic grass-fed mozzarella cheese, shredded (note that buying pre-shredded cheese includes enzymes that interfere with

    melting, you’ll get a better melt from fresh grated)


  • Assorted toppings:

    • Prosciutto+arugulao Cherry tomatoes,sliced+basil

    • Mini peppers + onions, sliced

    • Optional: basil, red pepper flakes, balsamic glaze


Instructions:


  1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 425°F.

  2. Prepare Sweet Potatoes: Slice the sweet potatoes into 1⁄2 inch thick rounds. Toss with olive oil, and season with garlic powder, oregano, salt and pepper.

  3. Bake Sweet Potatoes: Arrange the slices in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are tender and slightly crispy.

  4. Add Toppings: Once the sweet potatoes are cooked, top each slice with tomato sauce, mozzarella cheese, parmesan, cherry tomatoes, olives, peppers, and onions.

  5. Broil for a Finishing Touch: Switch the oven to broil and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Watch carefully to avoid burning.

  6. Serve: Garnish with fresh basil, red pepper flakes, and drizzle with balsamic glaze, if desired. Serve warm.
