Sweet potato toast with avocado pea puree is a great meal if you’re on a vegan or vegetarian diet.
Sweet potatoes are not real potatoes but belong to the bindweed family. Due to the abundant anthocyanins and carotenoids, the orange vegetable has a high antioxidant effect.
Besides, they contain a lot of dietary fiber and complex carbohydrates, which provide a balanced blood sugar level, saturate well, and long-lasting. The minerals contained magnesium, copper, potassium, and iron. The vegetable has an alkaline effect.
The avocado is rich in fat, but these are mostly healthy and unsaturated fatty acids, which have anti-inflammatory and blood lipid-lowering effects. Avocados are bursting with antioxidants, B vitamins, vitamins A, C, and E.
Also, in the green alkaline fruit are minerals such as potassium, copper, and magnesium.
Do you prefer the dish in a vegan version? Then use crumbled tofu or finely chopped walnut kernels instead of the feta.
