Braised Kale & Roasted Sweet Potatoes pair beautifully together! You can mix and match what other vegetables or proteins you want to throw in with your sweet potatoes.

You can also serve this dish with a grain to make for a delicious grain bowl.

Ingredients

Serves: 3 Time: 45-50 minutes

Braised Kale

  • 1 bunch of kale, rinsed, stems removed and chopped
  • 2-3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/2 lemon, juiced
  • 1 Tbs apple cider vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 2 tsp olive oil

Roasted Sweet Potatoes

  • 1 large sweet potato, cubed
  • 1/2 yellow onion, diced
  • 1 large yellow squash, cubed
  • 1 can chickpeas, drained & rinsed
  • Light drizzle of olive oil
  • Splash of apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp ground thyme
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp ground mustard

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400ºF
  2. Begin preparing the vegetables to be roasted in the oven alongside your sweet potatoes.
  3. Add the onion, squash, sweet potato, and chickpeas to a roasting pan or casserole dish.
  4. Mix in the olive oil, apple cider vinegar, and seasonings.
  5. Place in the oven and allow it to roast for 30-40 minutes, stirring halfway through
  6. Wait for your roasted vegetables to be about 10-15 minutes away from being fully cooked and then prepare your braised kale ingredients.
  7. In a large-medium skillet, heat the olive oil on high and add the garlic. Cook it until it is very fragrant, about a minute or two.
  8. Reduce heat to medium-low and add the kale, salt, pepper, lemon juice, and apple cider vinegar. Stir together with tongs or a wooden spoon.
  9. Cover the pan with a lid and cook for about 10 minutes, be careful not to overcook the kale. The leaves should be a rich green color and lightly wilted.
  10. Remove kale from heat once cooked and remove roasted vegetables from the oven. Serve together or alongside a grain such as quinoa, rice, or farro, and enjoy!

Cajun Rice & Sausage

Cajun Rice & Sausage

Cajun Rice & Sausage that can be easily made for vegans or meat-eaters. In our attempt, we used Beyond Meat’s regular sausage, but we’d also recommend andouille sausage for meat lovers. If you want to exclude meat all together but want some protein, you can add in red kidney beans. Customize this dish to your liking! It’s perfect for making a large batch to have plenty of leftovers throughout the week or if you’re hosting a large dinner.

Ingredients

Serves: 5-6 Time: 45-50 minutes

Cajun Rice & Sausage

  • 1 bag frozen, chopped okra
  • 2 cups rice
  • 4 cups vegetable or chicken stock 
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp ground thyme
  • 1/4 tsp ground sage
  • Olive oil for cooking

Directions

  1. Begin by cooking your sausage (meat or vegan) according to its needed instructions. For Beyond Meat, cook for 6 minutes on a lightly oiled skillet, turning frequently. For andouille sausage place it in a skillet. Add 1/2-inch of water. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer for 8-10 minutes.
  2. Once done, set aside and cool. Once cool, cut into slices.
  3. Prepare your vegetables and make sure your okra is thawed when using frozen okra.
  4. In a large pot, you may add the oil from the sausage skillet to the pot or use fresh oil on medium-high heat.
  5. Begin sauteing the okra and garlic for 2-4 minutes.
  6. Then, add in the onion, celery, and bell pepper. Cook for 7 minutes or until the onion is translucent.
  7. Add in the seasonings, rice, and vegetable stock. Cover with a lid and bring to a boil.
  8. Once boiling, reduce heat to low and simmer. Stir occasionally to prevent the rice from sticking. Cook for about 25 minutes or until rice is done.
  9. When the rice is down, stir in the sausage, remove bay leaves, serve and enjoy.

Optional toppings include chopped green onion and hot sauce. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for 2-3 days.
