Mashed Sweet Potatoes & Lentils

Mashed Sweet Potatoes & Lentils make for a hearty entrée on its own or a combination of delicious sides to prepare for the winter holiday season. This nutritious combo is quick and easy to make and we included a simple recipe for roasted brussels sprouts which we paired to create a complete entrée.

Ingredients

Serves: 4 Time: 35-40 minutes

Mashed Sweet Potatoes & Lentils

  • 2 large sweet potatoes
  • 1 Tbs non-dairy or dairy butter
  • 1/4-1/2 cup non-dairy milk or cream
  • 1 cup uncooked green lentils
  • 1/2 cup mushrooms, sliced
  • 2 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp sage
  • 1/2 tsp thyme

Roasted Brussels Sprouts

  • 1 lb brussels sprouts, stems removed & halved
  • 1/2 yellow onion, diced
  • 1 Tbs olive oil
  • Salt & pepper to taste
  • 3 garlic cloves, peeled & roughly chopped

Directions

  1. For the brussels sprouts, prepare them along with the onion and garlic and add them to a small roasting pan.
  2. Mix with oil, salt, and pepper. Place in the oven and roast for about 30 minutes.
  3. For the potatoes, poke a few holes in them with a fork and bring water in a large pot to boil.
  4. Add the sweet potatoes and allow them to simmer in the water for about 20-30 minutes or until softened and easy to poke through.
  5. For the lentils, in a medium pot, add a splash of olive oil.
  6. Once hot, add the lentils and mushrooms and stir together for 1 minute.
  7. Then, add the vegetable broth, paprika, sage, and thyme.
  8. Cover the pot with a lid, bring to a boil, and once boiling, reduce heat to low and simmer for 25 minutes or until fully cooked.
  9. Once the sweet potatoes are soft, drain the water and mix with a mixer, immersion blender, or heavy fork with the non-dairy butter and milk, adding just enough milk to a preferred level of creaminess. You may also season the sweet potatoes with a dash of salt and pepper to your liking.
  10. After everything has been cooked, serve together and enjoy!

Bok Choy & Tofu Soup
November 2, 2022

Bok Choy & Tofu Soup

Bok Choy & Tofu Soup is a delicious soup that is perfect for the colder months. This recipe is rich in nutrients and protein while being low in fat. You may choose to serve this soup with rice or rice noodles, or you may try substituting the tofu for another protein.

Ingredients

Serves: 4-5 Time: 35 minutes

Bok Choy & Tofu Soup

  • 1 large head bok choy, chopped
  • 1/2 yellow onion, diced
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/2 Tbs fresh ginger, minced
  • 1/2 cup mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 2 tsp Chinese five spice
  • 1/4 tsp chili flakes
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1 Tbs soy sauce
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 Tbs sesame oil
  • 1 block tofu, cubed & steamed
  • 1 cup rice, cooked (optional)
  • Toppings: sliced jalapeño, cilantro, chopped scallions

Directions

  1. Begin by preparing your vegetables and tofu. We decided to cook rice to add to the soup and used a steamer basket to steam the tofu that way.
  2. Another option to steam tofu is a double boiler on the stove.
  3. Meanwhile, in a large pot, set heat to medium-high and add the sesame oil.
  4. Once hot, add the onion, garlic, and ginger. Cook together for 3-4 minutes.
  5. Then, add the soy sauce, a splash of vegetable broth, and the seasonings. Stir together for another 4 minutes.
  6. Add in the mushrooms and stir for 2 minutes.
  7. Next, add the remainder of the vegetable broth.
  8. Bring the soup to a low boil, then add the bok choy and broccoli. Reduce heat to low, cover with a lid, and simmer for 10-15 minutes.
  9. Once your tofu has been steamed, add it to the soup.
  10. Taste and adjust seasoning as desired. After the bok choy has wilted, your soup is ready.
  11. Serve with desired toppings and enjoy!
