Thanks go out to my brother in-law for inspiring me to make this Roasted Garlic Lime Aioli. It is the perfect summer condiment with it’s bright and refreshing flavors. I knew it would cool the heat from the chorizo in this dish, and it paired beautifully with the sweet potatoes.
This was a whole meal for our family, and the kids loved it! Our kids like things a little spicy, but you can certainly sub a more mild-flavored meat like ground beef, chicken, or even black beans for a vegetarian option. This could also be a nice appetizer.
What’s your favorite way to top a sweet potato toast?
