Vegan Stuffed Sweet Potatoes with Mediterranean Quinoa
Ingredients
2 medium sweet potatoes
1 tablespoon of olive oil
2 cups spinach
1/2 cup canned chickpeas
1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes (chopped)
2 tablespoons calamata olives (chopped)
1 cup cooked quinoa
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon dried dill
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
Salt and pepper to taste
to decorate
1 tablespoon tahini
1 teaspoon lemon juice
A pinch of salt and pepper
1 to 2 tablespoons of water to dilute
green onions
red pepper flakes
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400ºF. Pierce the sweet potatoes with a fork and put in a baking dish. Bake until soft and the knife glides easily into the flesh, about 35 - 45 minutes depending on size.
- Meanwhile, cook the quinoa mixture by heating the oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the rest of the ingredients (spinach to salt and pepper) and fry until warm. Keep warm until sweet potatoes are cooked.
- When the sweet potato is soft, remove it from the oven and let it cool for several minutes. After cooling, transfer them to a plate, separate them with a sharp knife and a spoon of quinoa in the center.
- Beat together tahini, lemon, salt, pepper and water, then pour over sweet potatoes. Garnish with fresh onions and red pepper flakes. Serve immediately and enjoy!
