Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 medium zucchini, spiralized
2 large sweet potatoes, spiralized
extra virgin olive oil
10 oz canned sweet corn
10 oz container cherry tomatoes
1 Tbsp chopped garlic
1 Tbsp cilantro paste
1/2 c chopped pickled jalapenos
1 tsp fresh cracked pepper
1 tsp sea salt
2 handfuls fresh spinach leaves
feta cheese
almond slivers
fresh cilantro
sriracha

Steps:

  • 1. In a large skillet over medium heat, combine olive oil (just enough to cover pan), tomatoes, corn, garlic, cilantro paste, chopped peppers, and salt and pepper.
  • 2. While this is stewing, spiralize the zucchini and potatoes. Once the tomatoes have started to crack, use a wooden spoon to squash them. Add in your noodles, toss to coat.
  • 3. After a couple minutes, add in spinach until just wilted, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat.
  • 4. When serving, top with crumbled feta cheese (to your preference, about 1/4 cup a person), almonds and fresh cilantro. I top with lots of sriracha, because I like it spicy. It's just as good without it.

SWEET POTATO ZUCCHINI HASH



Sweet Potato Zucchini Hash image

A simple and sweet treat that packs a lot of flavor. It makes a great alternate breakfast side in place of the standard hash browned potatoes. Try it as a breakfast side with scrambled eggs! Sweet potatoes let off a lot of water as they cook, so it may be necessary to drain the hash before serving.
