A healthier version of traditional nachos on the griddle was my latest creation, today I am sharing Blackstone Taco Loaded Sweet Potato Nachos!

Clearly you’re not getting a crunch from the sweet potatoes, but that’s where the crisp sweet peppers come in!

Plus we are using ground turkey in place of ground beef AND a High Protein Avocado Cilantro Cream Sauce in place of sour cream to make it even more healthy.

How to make Blackstone Taco Loaded Sweet Potato Nachos

Start by thinly slicing a sweet potato, mine was on the thinner side and a little longer so it was perfect.

And also slicing some sweet mini peppers.

Then set your Blackstone or flat top griddle to medium heat, add some cooking oil of choice, and the sweet potato slices.

Season with kosher salt, pepper, and taco seasoning blend of choice.

Then add your sweet peppers and a pound of ground turkey.

And season both just like the sweet potatoes.

Everything will cook for about 8 to 10 minutes.

Flip the taters a few times and mix the sweet potatoes and taco turkey meat, keeping them separate.

Taste the taco meat and add more taco seasoning if needed.

And if it seems dry, simply add some water to mix in.

Now assemble the nachos starting with the sweet potatoes, cheese, sauces of choice, taco meat, peppers, and more cheese.

I popped mine into the microwave for a few seconds to help the cheese melt.

Then add your sour cream or High Protein Avocado Cilantro Lime Sauce, plus additional toppings of choice.

Blackstone Taco Loaded Sweet Potato Nachos were the perfect meal for two, just grab a fork and dive right in!

Equipment

Blackstone Griddle
Flat Top Grill/ Griddle

Ingredients

1 sweet potato (a longer, thinner sweet potato would be ideal)
6 mini sweet peppers
cooking oil of choice
1/2 pound ground turkey (or cook the whole pound and use leftovers for taco salads)
kosher salt, pepper, taco seasoning blend
1 cup shredded cheese of choice
1/4 cup sour cream (or see post above for my High Protein Avocado Cilantro Lime Sauce)
Toppings of choice: hot sauce, pickled onions, cilantro

Instructions

Slice the sweet potato (skin on) with a sharp knife, aiming for thin, even slices. Slice the sweet peppers, discard stems.
Preheat your griddle to medium. Add cooking oil of choice and lay the sweet potato slices on one side of griddle, season with kosher salt, pepper, and taco seasoning.
Note: Adding the sweet potatoes and seasoning them first allows them the few extra minutes they need so everything is done at once.
Add cooking oil to other side of griddle and add sweet peppers to one space and ground turkey to another space. Season both with kosher salt, pepper, and taco seasoning.
Cook everything for 8 to 10 minutes, mixing the turkey and peppers, and flipping the sweet potatoes a few times, keeping all three separate.
Note: Taste turkey for seasoning and add more taco seasoning if needed, if turkey looks dry squirt some water to mix in as it cooks on the griddle.
Assemble the nachos with the sweet potatoes in a basket or on a tray, half of the cheese, then the taco meat and peppers, and remaining cheese. Microwave for a minute to melt cheese if desired.
Drizzle sour cream or High Protein Avocado Cilantro Lime Sauce over top and add toppings of choice such as hot sauce, pickled onions, and/or cilantro.
