- 3 sweet potatoes peeled
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 large garlic cloves minced
- 2 cups spinach leaves
- 1/2 bell pepper cut in thin strips
- 2/3 cup chickpeas cooked
- 1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
- 1 tablespoon sriracha
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon coriander
Use a spiralizer/spiral slicer to make the sweet potato noodles. I used 3 potatoes to make about 2 1/2 cups of sweet potato pasta.
Heat olive oil in a large stock pot over medium heat. Add the sweet potatoes and stir gently. Cook over medium heat for 5 minutes.
Add the spinach, chickpeas, bell pepper and garlic. Cook for another 3-5 minutes or until the spinach is wilted and the garlic is aromatic.
Turn off the heat and stir in the ginger, sriracha, vinegar, paprika and coriander.
Serve warm or cold with additional sriracha.
