For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of cayenne pepper to the avocado mixture. If you're short on time, you can microwave the yams until tender instead of baking them. Feel free to substitute the Cheddar cheese with your favorite cheese, such as Monterey Jack or Pepper Jack. The avocado mixture can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 hours. Be sure to cover it tightly to prevent browning. Garnish with extra cilantro and a lime wedge for a vibrant presentation.
