Healthy Sweet potato pan

Community of healthy eaters: I made a recipe today I’d like to share with you.

The recipes here in the blog sections are super easy to make and healthy to eat.

I hope it gives you a change in your cooking routine.

It always makes me happy if I cook something I’ve never done before or try it a different way.

I'll explain you here what makes the dish healthy and satisfying:

• The sweet potatoes are rich in fibers and healthy nutrients. You won’t crave sugar or other processed carbohydrates that much afterwards. It's a natural food and simmered in a bit of water is the healthiest way to prepare the sweet potatoes.

• Leek is high in vitamin C and gives the dish the flavor. The same will do onions or garlic.

• The asparagus contain fibers, minerals and vitamins and help cleanse the liver.

• The black beans make sure you get your proteins needed and are a good source of iron.

Ingredients

• 2 large Sweet potatoes

• 1 leek or onion or garlic (whatever you have or flavor you choose)

• ½ bundle of asparagus (alternative use broccoli, brussel sprout or another green Veggie)

• 1 can of black beans (without any added sugar and low on sodium)

• Spices (your choice, I used Turmeric, sea salt and pepper)

• Olive oil

Steps

• Peel sweet potatoes

• Cut them into 1 inch cubes

• Put 1/3 cup of water in a skillet, add sweet potatoes and simmer on medium heat for 5min

• Cut leek into pieces and add into the skillet

• Wash and cut asparagus into 3 in long pieces

• add the asparagus after the 5 min and simmer for another 3min on low heat

• open can of black beans

• add beans into the pan and keep simmering for another 3-5min on low heat

Enjoy your meal!
