SOUTHWEST SWEET POTATO, KALE AND CHICK PEA SKILLET





Ingredients:

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 yellow onion, diced
1 red bell pepper, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
4 cups grated sweet potato (about 1 large)
4 cups kale, torn into bite size pieces (I used green curly kale)

1 15 oz can Chick Pea, drained and rinsed
Cajun spice mix to taste

Directions:

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté about 3 minutes. Add the diced bell pepper and cook another 2 minutes, then add the minced garlic and continue to sauté . Add the grated sweet potato and stir to combine spreading it evenly across the skillet. Cover the skillet. After about 3 minutes, stir the sweet potato mixture and cover again to cook for another 2-3 minutes.


Add the cajun seasoning to taste to  the sweet potato, then add the kale and Chick peas on top (don't stir). Season with salt and pepper. Cover for 2-3 minutes to wilt the kale, then uncover and stir to evenly distribute the kale and chick peas.
