Sweet potato burgers

This is actually a recipe which I ended up changing almost completely from Simply Nigella. Hers was a butternut squash and halloumi burger, but I don’t really like butternut squash. Anyway, this is my own spin!

Serves 4-6

Ingredients

• 1-2 sweet potatoes, depending on size and mouths to feed
• Sainsbury’s Greek style vegan cheese
• wholemeal pitta bread
• light mayo
• pesto
• spinach
• tomatoes
• salt & pepper

Method

• Preheat the oven to 200*C and wash the sweet potato(es)
• Cut the potato into slices about 1.5cm each, then lay on a baking tray
• Sprinkle with salt and pepper (optional)
• Place in the oven for 20-25 minutes
• Mix a dollop of light mayo with a teaspoon of pesto to make a sauce.
• Cut the pitta in half, then slice open through the middle
• Spread the sauce and add spinach and chopped tomatoes
• Remove sweet potato from oven and add one slice per half pitta
• Crumble cheese on top
• close the pitta and enjoy!
