When Kelsey Preciado of Little Bits Of was craving avocado toast but had run out of bread, the blogger decided to experiment with a sweet potato base instead. When sliced into ¼-inch thick rounds, the vitamin-packed, gluten-free veggie fits perfectly into the slots of a toaster (just like bread). Preciado suggests running the cycle twice to get the "toasts" a little browned. As for toppings, she says, "the options are really endless!"
