Ingredients

1 whole medium sweet potato cut into bite size chunks
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
salt and pepper to taste
2 tsp finely chopped rosemary
2 cups kale torn in to bite size pieces
1 tbsp lemon juice
3/4 cup cottage cheese
2 tbsp Bitchin' Sauce- "Heat" or other flavor
2 tbsp pumpkin seeds

Instructions

Roast the sweet potato

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Peel the sweet potato (or leave it on for more fiber) and cut into bite size pieces. Layer on parchment paper and drizzle with olive oil. Toss with hands and spread sweet potato on baking sheet. Top sweet potatoes with salt and pepper and rosemary. Bake for 30 minutes, or until tender and slightly crispy.

Assemble the bowl

To serve: Place kale in an individual serving bowl. Top with the roasted sweet potatoes, a squeeze of lemon juice, cottage cheese, Bitchin' sauce, and pumpkin seeds.

Notes

Meal Prep Tip! This is an easy meal prep recipe if you roast a big batch of sweet potatoes ahead of time, then reheat them in the microwave before assembling your power bowl.
Make It Your Own!
- Swap the sweet potatoes out for roasted carrots, or any other roasted veggies.
- Use any variety of leafy greens, such as spinach, arugula, romaine lettuce, or Swiss chard.
- Not into cottage cheese or want to make it a vegan meal? Top with lentils or crispy chickpeas for plant-based protein. Or, for a Paleo version, top with cooked salmon or chicken.
- Try all the different varieties of Bitchin' Sauce, and top with your favorite.
- Don't have pumpkin seeds? Any nuts or other seeds will be delicious too!
