Avocado Mojo Sweet Potato Bowls recipe

These Avocado Mojo Sweet Potato Bowls make for a speedy and delightful meal that you can have on the table in about 35 minutes. Roasted sweet potato wedges spiced with taco seasoning are served on top of a homemade herby avocado mojo sauce. The chicken meatballs are my choice of protein for this dish. Sometimes, I’ll swap them out for chili-butter roast chicken. And if you want to make it vegan, substitute crispy fried tofu for chicken and opt for vegan mayo in the avocado mojo sauce.

The avocado mojo sauce is the star here and a great recipe to keep up your sleeve. It can be drizzled on vegetables and salads. And it’s perfect as a dip! This sauce is bursting with flavor from citrus, garlic, and fresh cilantro. It’s punchy, bright, and super simple to make while your sweet potatoes roast in the oven.

To make the Avocado Mojo Sweet Potato Bowls, you will need the following ingredients:
