Ingredients
- 2 sweet potatoes
- 1/2 cup onion, sliced thin
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 1/2 red bell peppers, thinly sliced
- 1 tsp lemon juice
- 1/4 cup spring onions, thinly sliced
- 1 tbsp tamari, optional
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400F/200C. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Arrange the sweet potatoes on the baking sheet and pierce with a fork. Bake for 30-45 minutes, until cooked all the way through. Remove from oven and set aside.
- While the potatoes are baking, place a ceramic non-stick skillet on medium-high heat and add the onions. Cook for 3-5 minutes, until the onions are tender, adding a bit of water if needed to prevent sticking.
- Add the garlic, red pepper flakes (if using), and broccoli florets. Cook for 5-7 minutes, adding water when needed, until the broccoli is almost tender.
- Add the bell peppers and lime juice and continue cooking until all the vegetables are tender, about 3-4 minutes.
- To serve, cut an opening lengthwise through the sweet potatoes and fill the cavity with the vegetable stir fry. Sprinkle a tablespoon of spring onions onto each and serve immediately. Enjoy!
