These nourish bowls are one of our go-to recipes after a vacation for maybe a weekend of indulging, haha! We always feel like these bowls get us right back on track because of all of the colors, flavors & nutrients…the combination is so so good! I’m also a sucker for a warm, soft sweet potato paired with a cold, crispy kale…the contrast is too perfect. So, next time you are in need of a nourishing, nutrient-dense meal, make this your go-to!
Nourish Bowls
Servings 2 bowls
Ingredients
- 2-4 large sweet potatoes
- 1-2 large bunches of kale destemmed & chopped
- 2 lemons
- pomegranate seeds
- your protein of choice we love using chopped chicken thighs or salmon
- 1 can chickpeas drained
- 2 tbsp honey
- salt & pepper to taste
- garlic powder to taste
- grated parmesan cheese
- flaky salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425 degrees. Half your sweet potatoes down the middle and bake in the oven, skin side down for about 20-25 minutes, or until soft.
- Drain, rinse and dry your chickpeas. Drizzle with olive oil and season with garlic powder, salt and pepper. Bake in the oven (also at 425) for 10-15 minutes, flipping/shuffling them around at the halfway point. The end result should be crunchy!
- Chop your kale and add the juice from 2 squeezed lemons. Massage the kale with your hands until soft. Keep in fridge until you’re ready to assemble the bowls!
- Once sweet potatoes are soft, take them out and drizzle them with olive oil, honey & flaky salt. Pop back into the oven and cook for 10-15 more minutes. Once they are done, cut them into wedges.
- Prepare your protein. (we just grill chicken thighs seasoned with olive oil, salt, pepper & garlic powder)
- Assemble your bowl! Layer kale, sweet potato wedges, chicken peas, protein, fresh pomegranate seeds, extra lemon juice & grated parmesan.
