Roasted Sweet Potatoes and Spinach With Feta

Roasted Sweet Potatoes and Spinach With Feta

(373 Cal) Boring roasted sweet potatoes this is not! This is a sweet and spicy mixture of sweet potatoes, spinach and pickled jalapenos. The real key to this dish is the brine of the pickled jalapenos. It is used to flavor the dish. The whole thing is made with one sheet pan so it saves on dishes too. This dish makes a great side or main dish. If you wish to add to it, serve it in a bowl with a poached egg on top or stuff some in a tortilla with some plain Greek yogurt. It is quite versatile.

(392 Cal) This salad is a delight! Every bite is crunchy, chewy lemony and grassy. It is also easy to make. I like to use whole wheat orzo to bump up the nutrition and fiber. It is great as a main dish or side. Here we seared a few shrimp in garlic and olive oil. Feel free to add as many fresh herbs as you like!

(316 Cal) This is a great way to do meatless chili but still get the heartiness you want. You will like the depth of flavors that develop due to the addition of a bit of cinnamon and a Mexican beer. It tastes little more special than your average chili.

Potato and Spinach Patties

Potato and Spinach Patties

These big, spicy burgers are incredibly easy to put together and to cook. They get their heat from cayenne pepper, ground pepper and warmth from garam masala. These are great served with many different sauces, chutneys or salsas. I made a quick sauce to serve with the burgers by stirring sweet pickle relish into plain yogurt. They are also good with a poached egg and a little green chili salsa on top.
