Sweet Potato Nourish Bowl 30 Minutes

This is an iteration of that recipe, but with more decidedly Middle-Eastern and Mediterranean influences thanks to the addition of za’atar spice blend, hummus, and tahini (follow links for recipes and to learn about the origins of these ingredients). Not only is this bowl incredibly flavorful, it’s also quite nourishing with the addition of a whole sweet potato for plenty of whole, complex carbs and natural sweetness. Our go-to 4-ingredient dill garlic sauce adds a garlicky, lemony punch. Did we mention it’s ready in 30 minutes? Let us show you how it’s done!

Nourish Bowl Components

First comes our tabbouleh-inspired parsley salad for a fresh, herby element. Parsley is native to the Mediterranean and is rich in antioxidants and minerals including potassium, calcium, manganese, iron, and magnesium (source). It’s one of our favorites! But if you’re not a parsley fan, another fresh herb such as cilantro or dill could work as a substitute. Next is one of our favorite sauces from the blog: Dill Garlic Sauce! Made with hummus, lemon, garlic, and dill, this sauce comes together in just 5 minutes and adds so much flavor! And for the roasted sweet potatoes, we used our tried-and-true method: cut in half, coat with a dash of oil, and bake cut side down until tender (~25 minutes). Do you see that caramelization? Hubba hubba! With the components ready, this nourish bowl comes together in no time! Chopped romaine provides crunch, sauerkraut supplies probiotics and tang, and tahini adds richness and minerals. Za’atar brings it all together with its herbal, tangy, savory notes. Oh, and don’t forget about the extra spoonful of hummus because there’s no such thing as too much hummus! We hope you LOVE this bowl! It’s:SavoryComfortingVersatileCustomizableQuick & easyFlavorful& Nourishing! It’s perfect as a weeknight meal, but also delicious enough to impress dinner guests! And while plenty filling on its own, it would also pair well with our falafel, beet falafel, or lemon baked salmon.
