Sweet Potato Toast

Ingredients

• ½ large sweet potato
• Olive Oil
• Salt and pepper to taste

Directions

• Using a large sharp knife, slice the sweet potato lengthwise down the middle. With a steady hand, make 4-5 thin slices 'bread' thick from the middle of the sweet potato. You can keep the skin or discard. I prefer keeping the skin.
• Lightly coat the sweet potato slices with olive oil and season with salt and pepper
• Insert slices into toaster (similar to bread) and toast the slices on high. Alternatively, you can toast them in a toaster oven.
• After the sweet potatoes pop up from the toaster, check to see if they are fork tender, and toast longer if desired. Depending on your toaster, you may also want to turn down the toaster setting to Medium.
• Remove the sweet potatoes from the toaster, and cool on a wire rack before adding toppings.
