I recently ate at Laser Wolf, an Israeli restaurant in Williamsburg, Brooklyn and their Shawarma Spiced Cauliflower entree was out of bounds! It inspired me to make a copy-cat version and this is what I came up with. No doubt different from what I enjoyed at Laser Wolf, yet quite delicious in its own right.
Moroccan Quinoa Veggie Bowl
I can eat this dish for any meal, any day of the week. It contains the perfect combination of ingredients in my opinion--roasted cauliflower, sweet potato and red onion along with quinoa, kale and chickpeas. All brought together in a pan sautéed with olive oil spiced with garlic, cinnamon, coriander, cumin and ginger.
Sweet Potato with Peanut Butter, Chili Crisp and Scallion
When you want something fast, healthy and satisfying, this loaded sweet potato is it. The combination of flavors may seem odd, but they are oddly complementary to one another. I often bake a few sweet potatoes on Sunday so that I can make this quickly when I don’t have much time for lunch or dinner throughout the week. You can also microwave the sweet potato, but roasting caramelizes the skin and makes for a softer, sweeter end result.
