Cooking Steps
Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce.
Cut sweet potatoes into ½-inch-thick wedges. Toss on a baking sheet with a large drizzle of oil, Southwest Spice Blend, salt, and pepper. Roast on top rack until tender and lightly crisped, 25-30 minutes.
Place cream sauce base in a small pot. Bring to a simmer over medium-low heat and cook, whisking, until sauce begins to thicken, about 1 minute. Reduce heat to low and slowly whisk in cheddar cheese. Cook, whisking constantly, until cheese is melted and sauce has thickened. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat and cover until ready to serve.
Place roasted sweet potatoes on a serving platter; drizzle with as much cheese sauce as you like. Serve with guacamole on the side for dipping.

This was fun and easy to make, it tasted delicious and was a good twist on nachos
Divine, making the cheese sauce was so easy and the combination of cheese and guacamole on these sweet potatoes was amazing!
Surprisingly a great snack. HF did it again. Another flavorful, quick, mostly healthy snack. (The cheese but if loving cheese is wrong, I don't want to be right.) They elevated and reimagined nachos and it's a hit.
The sweet potatoes were pretty small and banged up, but loved the flavor! This was such a yummy appetizer.
I never would have thought to use sweet potatoes like this! So yummy! They were all gone!
Only 2 sweet potatoes is not really a lot for this recipe. They were also small. Got about 4-5 wedges each which added to a meal as a side worked but I would not call these nachos or say that it serves 3-4. It barely fed 2.
I'm not a fan of sweet potatoes but the Cheesy Sweet Potato Nachos were actually quite good! The cheese sauce had great flavor and there was plenty of it.
Not 3-4 servings. 1 1/2 servings at best. 2 small sweet potatoes and a crap load of sauce. Labor intensive- a ton of steps for a very small amount. The taste is outstanding. Would not order again.
This a great idea for a healthier way to eat nachos as sweet potatoes.
These were a fun snack. I couldn't get my sweet potatoes crispy enough. Not sure why. They were charred and cooked but still not crispy. Not sure what the secret is. But a fun snack nevertheless.
