Spicy Ginger Sweet Potato Dip

Ingredients

• Sweet potatoes
• Yogurt. You can use either vegan or non, but make sure it's unsweetened and unflavored. This recipe will work best with a thick, rich, full-fat yogurt for maximum creaminess.
• Lime. You'll use the juice of half a lime to add some subtle acidity to the dip. Conversely, you can use lemon instead for a different flavor profile.
• Fresh ginger. The ginger is definitely the star of this spicy sweet potato recipe, so you'll want to use fresh ginger root. I don't recommend powdered ginger.
• Cumin
• Paprika
• Salt
• Olive oil. For garnishing. It's optional, but it gives this dish a nice little bit of richness. You can also garnish it with a drizzle of maple syrup if you love the sweet/spicy combo.
• Pecans
• Pepitas. As shown in the photos here, I like to use TWO crunchy garnishes for all the holiday vibes. Feel free to choose just pecans or pepitas though if you're looking to streamline. ‍
