To Make the Salsa
- Place the sweet potato cubes on a baking tray with a good drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of salt. Roast until tender and ready to eat.
- Add the avocado, tomato, spices, salt, and lemon to the baking tray and mix everything together gently- this mixes everything with the olive oil and warms everything slightly.
