Mediterranean Sweet Potato Platter is a delicious and hearty meal that is well balanced in protein and nutritious vegetables. Instead of lentils, you can opt to just keep the chickpeas for your protein or try serving with pita bread. This recipe also makes for a delicious cold salad the next day or a warm pita pocket-style lunch.
Prepare all of your vegetables, transferring the sweet potato, onion, bell pepper, tomato, and chickpeas to a mixing bowl.
If you are preparing the greek yogurt dressing, prepare now and rest in the fridge while you cook.
Set aside the cucumber and parsley in a small prep bowl and return to the fridge. Also, set aside the cabbage and kale.
Toss the sweet potatoes, onion, bell pepper, tomatoes, and chickpeas with olive oil, salt, black pepper, ground thyme, and oregano. Transfer to a baking sheet and roast in the oven for 35-45 minutes or until veggies are cooked and well-roasted. Check on them and stir halfway through.
For the lentils, rinse them ahead of time according to the packaging.
Then, in a medium stove-top pot, bring 2 cups of vegetable broth to a boil.
Once boiling, add in the lentils, garlic, and lemon juice. Cook for 1 minute.
Cover the pot with a lid and reduce heat to low, allowing the lentils to simmer for 25-30 minutes. There may be a little bit of liquid remaining after the lentils are cooked, but that will absorb on its own after being removed from heat.
After your vegetables and lentils have cooked, serve together over a mix of kale and cabbage and top with cucumbers/parsley. Dress with optional dressing and serve with pita bread if desired.
