This is a simple and filling recipe. The cool and spicy avocado topping is a pleasant contrast to the hot sweet yams.
Ingredients

- 1 medium red bell pepper, seeded and diced
- 2 avocados – peeled, pitted, and mashed
- ¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 2 green onions, sliced
- ½ teaspoon ground cumin
- 3 tablespoons lime juice
- salt and ground black pepper to taste
- 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place yams on a baking sheet.
Step 2
Bake yams for 40 minutes, or until tender, turning occasionally. Set aside.
Step 3
In a medium bowl, mix together the red pepper, avocado, cilantro, olive oil, green onions, cumin and lime juice.
