Stuffed Sweet Potatoes w/Garlic Tahini Drizzle 🍠 - Food Photography

So today is National Avocado Day, and you guys know avocado is like the best fruit out here right? Ok maybe watermelon is #1 but avocado is still pretty great! Very creamy, versatile, and a great addition to salads so that you don’t need to use a dressing. Also, who doesn’t love guacamole!? 

I thought these stuffed sweet potatoes topped with the celebrated fruit was the perfect way to celebrate avocado day, and I think it’s something you should try too ;) 

These are full of healthy fats, carbohydrates & loaded with vitamins & minerals to fuel the body and keep it running efficiently! So what do ya say? Sweet potato time?! 🍠
