2. Season the potatoes with the seasonings above.
3. Massage the potatoes all seasonings are mixed in well.
4. Roast the sweet potatoes for 20 minutes at 400 degrees.
5. Make sure they are a bit al dente (not too mushy)

7. Let me cool a bit then place the warm potatoes and avocados on top a bed of freshly rinsed greens.
