Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. Peel and dice 2 large sweet potatoes into 1/2-inch cubes, then toss with 1 tbsp avocado oil, 1/2 tsp sea salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Arrange in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Step 2: Slice 2 medium zucchini into 1/4-inch thick half-moons and toss with 1 tbsp avocado oil, 1/2 tsp sea salt, 1/4 tsp black pepper, and 1 tbsp grated fresh turmeric. Add to the baking sheet with sweet potatoes.
