Ginger Tempeh Stuffed Sweet Potatoes With Almond Butter Sauce Food

GINGER TEMPEH STUFFED SWEET POTATOES WITH ALMOND BUTTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°.
• Poke a few holes in each sweet potato with a knife.
• Place the potatoes on the oven rack and bake until they're easily pierced with a fork, 40-60 minutes, depending on size.
• Whisk all of the ingredients together in a small bowl.
• Taste-test and adjust any seasonings to your liking. Thin with water as needed.
• When your sweet potatoes have about 10 minutes left to bake, stir the ginger, garlic, lime juice and soy sauce together in a medium bowl. Add the tempeh cubes and toss to coat.
• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
• Add the tempeh and cook for about 10 minutes, flipping once or twice to get browning on multiple sides.
• Raise the heat to high and stir in the bell pepper.
• Stir-fry the mixture for about 2 minutes, until the peppers are tender-crisp.
• Cut each sweet potato open lengthwise and stuff with tempeh mixture. Top with almond butter sauce, scallions and sriracha. Serve.

GINGERED SWEET POTATOES

Steps:

• In a small skillet, melt butter with oil over medium heat. Stir in the brown sugar, honey, cinnamon, salt, ginger and pepper. Add the sweet potato wedges; toss to coat. Cover and cook over low heat for 20-30 minutes or until potatoes are tender, stirring occasionally.

TEMPEH STUFFED SWEET POTATOES

Steps:

• Cook sweet potatoes in microwave.
• make the peanut sauce. Place all peanut sauce ingredients together in the food processor and blend until combined. Set aside until ready to use.
• Next, make the tempeh. Heat vegetable broth in a medium skillet on medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic and saute until tender, about 4 minutes. Add tempeh and cook until lightly browned, about 3-4 minutes. Add soy sauce, cook another minute and turn off heat.
• When sweet potatoes are cool enough to handle, cut a slit in each one. Fill with a few slices of avocado, the tempeh mixture (it'll fall over the sides - that's okay!), and a drizzle of peanut sauce. Garnish with cilantro, green onions, peanuts, sesame seeds and sriracha.
