Notes
Dice your sweet potatoes and cauliflower into similar-sized pieces so they cook evenly and stay tender without falling apart.
Serve over rice, quinoa or a bed of your favorite dark leafy green like spinach, kale or arugula.
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Freeze for up to 3 months.
Double the batch and freeze half for your future busy-self!
