Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
- Toss the sweet potatoes in a medium bowl with 1 tablespoon oil, cumin and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Spread on a baking sheet and roast until soft and partially browned, 25 to 30 minutes.
- Spray both sides of the tortillas with cooking spray, then stack them up and cut the stack into 8 triangular pieces. Separate the tortilla pieces and lay them out onto a baking sheet. Sprinkle with the chili powder and 1/4 teaspoon salt and toss. Bake the chips until crisp, about 15 minutes, tossing the chips halfway through the baking time. Remove the chips from the oven and toss them with the lime zest.
- Heat 2 teaspoons of the oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add half of the onions and cook, stirring, until soft, about 4 minutes. Add the adobo sauce and tomato paste and stir until the tomato paste darkens slightly, about 2 minutes. Add the beans and 3/4 cup of water and simmer the sauce until it thickens and the beans are heated through, about 5 minutes. Set aside until ready to assemble the nachos.
- Combine the tomatoes, remaining onions, serrano chile, lime juice, remaining 1 teaspoon oil and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a food processor. Pulse until the mixture becomes a chunky salsa.
- To assemble the nachos, mound half of the tortilla chips in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Scatter most of the beans and the sweet potatoes over the chips. Sprinkle with half of the cheese. Mound the rest of the chips over the cheese and finish with the remaining beans, sweet potatoes and cheese. Place in the oven until the cheese melts, 5 to 7 minutes. Top with the avocado, salsa and cilantro.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Toss sweet potatoes, garlic, and shallot with 2 tablespoons oil. Spread evenly on a rimmed baking sheet and season with salt and pepper. Roast until tender, 25 to 30 minutes.
- Remove from oven. Drizzle spinach with oil and season with salt and pepper; scatter over sweet-potato mixture. Season fish with salt and pepper; place on top of spinach. Drizzle fish lightly with oil; roast until opaque and flaky, about 12 minutes. Stir together parsley, capers, remaining 3 tablespoons oil, and vinegar. Drizzle mixture over fish and vegetables; serve.
Tips:
- For the best flavor, use sweet potatoes that are firm and have no blemishes.
- Roasting the sweet potatoes brings out their natural sweetness and caramelizes them slightly, giving the salsa a delicious depth of flavor.
- Be sure to chop the sweet potatoes into small pieces so that they cook evenly.
- If you don't have a grill, you can roast the sweet potatoes in the oven at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for about 20 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly browned.
- Feel free to add other ingredients to the salsa, such as chopped onion, bell pepper, or avocado.
- Serve the salsa immediately, or store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Conclusion:
Roasted sweet potato salsa is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as a dip, a topping, or a side dish. It is a great way to use up leftover sweet potatoes, and it is also a healthy and flavorful addition to any meal.
