Ingredients

2 - Sweet Potatoes
¼ cup - Olive Oil
1 ½ teaspoons - Chili Powder
1 tsp - Smoked Paprika
¼ tsp - Cayenne
3 cloves - Garlic
2 teaspoons - Rosemary
1 - Head Kale
1 - Red Bell Pepper
1 can - Black Beans
salt
pepper
Brown Rice
avocado
feta cheese
fried egg
¼ cup - Tahini
3 tablespoons - Lemon Juice
3 tablespoons - cold water
1 clove - Garlic
salt

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400°F. Grease a sheet pan. Spread the diced sweet potatoes on the sheet pan, and drizzle with 2 Tbs. olive oil. Sprinkle with chili powder, smoked paprika, cayenne, garlic, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat, and bake for 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, toss the kale and bell pepper with the remaining olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Toss the mixture with the semi-cooked sweet potatoes, and cook for another 10-15 minutes, until the potatoes are tender and the kale is crispy.
Stir the can of black beans into the veggie mixture and bake for 3-5 minutes, just until the beans are warmed through. Taste, and season with salt and pepper. Serve the veggie mixture over rice with avocado, seeds, tahini sauce, and/or other toppings of choice.
While the veggies are baking, whisk together the tahini, lemon juice, water, garlic, and a pinch of salt. It will seize, but just keep whisking until it’s smooth. Add more lemon juice or water to get a saucy texture. Drizzle over bowls!
