Ingredients
Directions
Cut the pointy tips off of the sweet potato. Place in the spiralizer and turn them into noodles. Alternatively, you can use a julienne peeler.
Heat a large stovetop pan on medium-high. Add the onions, stirring continuously until translucent, about 3–4 minutes.
Add the garlic and cook for 30–60 seconds.
Deglaze the pan with the vegetable broth.
Add the sweet potato noodles and toss to coat. Let cook for 2 minutes, gently tossing and scraping down the sides of the pan.
Add 2 to 3 tablespoons more of vegetable broth of water as needed to keep the sweet potatoes from sticking. Cover and let the noodles continue to cook for 5 more minutes or until they start to soften and are tender but still have a crisp, al dente bite. Check and toss occasionally so that they cook evenly. Be careful not to overcook or they will start to break apart.
Once the potatoes are al dente, toss in the spinach and stir gently until wilted.
Serve with fresh basil and top with our Vegan Walnut Parmezan.
