INGREDIENTS
1 large sweet potato baked, skin on
1-2 cups kale, boiled
1/2 cup lentils, cooked
1 tbsp pumpkin / sunflower seeds
1 tbsp tahini
METHOD
1. Bake a sweet potato in the oven at 400F/200C for around 45 - 60 min depending on size. Cook until soft and tender all the way through.
2. In a pan, cook the lentils for required time and whilst they are cooking, boil the kale in a separate pan for 3-5 mins whilst keep an eye on the lentils as you go.3. When both the lentils and kale are ready, drain and bring them/mix together in one bowl and leave to the side.
4. Once your potato is cooked and the kale/lentil mix is ready, take out the sweet potato and let it cool for a bit before cutting a straight line down the middle (lengthwise) spreading there sides out as you do so. You can also scoop some of the sweet potato out to make more room for the stuffing.
5. Load up the potato with lentils & kale, sprinkle on the pumpkin + sunflower seeds, maybe some chilli flakes and a drizzle of tahini and get ready to go get stuffed!
