Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss 2 medium peeled and cubed sweet potatoes (about 500g) with 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil, 1 tsp sea salt, 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper, and 1/2 tsp smoked paprika in a large bowl until evenly coated. Spread on a rimmed baking sheet in a single layer and roast for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway, until the edges are caramelized and tender.
  2. Step 2: While the sweet potatoes roast, heat 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 4 minced fresh garlic cloves and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant but not browned.
  3. Step 3: Add 6 cups fresh spinach leaves (about 180g) to the skillet with the garlic. Sauté for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently, until the spinach is wilted but still bright green. Remove from heat and stir in 1 tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice.
  4. Step 4: Divide the roasted sweet potatoes and sautéed spinach evenly among 4 bowls and serve warm.
