Sweet potato wraps
Ok, be optimistic. In an effort to better our health and save a little moolah, I advocate going meatless for dinner once in awhile. Although you may feel skeptical, give these sweet potato wraps a try. They are delicious. You're doing nothing more than baking sweet potatoes and red bell pepper slices and then filling a wrap (I chose whole wheat tortillas) slathered with hummus (I picked some type of garlic and olive variety). It's quick, easy and you'll get a big dose of protein minus the meat.
Ingredients:
2 medium-sized sweet potatoes, cubed into ½-inch pieces
2 Tbsp. olive oil
1 red bell pepper, cut into strips
3 Tbsp. lemon juice
½ tsp. black pepper
1 tsp. cumin
1 tsp. coriander
1 tsp. thyme
prepared hummus
In a mixing bowl, toss potatoes and bell pepper pieces with olive oil. Spread evenly in a baking dish and bake at 425 degrees for 20 minutes. Meanwhile, mix spices with lemon juice. Drizzle on top of potatoes and peppers, stirring to coat well. Bake for another 20 minutes. Spread desired amount of hummus on wraps; fill with potato mixture and roll like a burrito to serve. Makes about four wraps.
