Do the same with your sweet potato. Arrange the veggie disks in a single layer across the two baking trays. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.<\/p>\n<p>Step 4: Bake in the oven for 10- 15 mins before flipping them over and returning them to the oven for another 10 &#8211; 15 minutes or until cooked through.<\/p>\n<p>Step 5: Once the veggie slices have cooled slightly you can start putting on your toppings (see tip). Add a pea-sized amount of black olive tapenade to the aubergine slices and top with a mozzarella ball. Top the sweet potato with avocado slices and sprinkle with finely chopped chilli.<\/p>\n<p><b>Tip: <\/b>Raid your cupboards and fridge for toppings. Sun dried tomatoes, pesto, fresh herbs, sour cream and salsas would all work deliciously.<\/p>\n<h2>What is Gousto?<\/h2>\n<p>Dinner, but not as you know it.
