Let's Get Started!

For this Cajun Sweet Potato Bowl Recipe you will need a few simple ingredients:

• 2 Medium Sweet Potatoes, diced
• 2 Stalks of Celery, sliced
• 1 Onion, diced
• 1 Bell Pepper, diced
• 4-6 Cloves of Garlic, minced
• 1 15 ounce Can of Red Kidney Beans
• 1 cup Rice, Cooked
• 1 tsp Cajun Seasoning
• 1 tsp Kosher Salt
• 1/2 tsp Ground Black Pepper
• Extra Virgin Olive Oil

To begin you will need to preheat your oven to 450 degrees. 

Whilst the oven is preheating you can dice your potatoes, bell peppers, onion, and celery, mince your onion, and place in a large mixing bowl.

Drizzle a little extra virgin olive oil over everything.

Sprinkle the seasonings over the vegetables and toss with your hands so that everything is coated.

Place on a baking sheet and pop in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.

As your vegetables are heating you will heat up the can of beans in a pot with a little salt and pepper.  If you really like spice add a little more of the cajun seasoning as well.

At the fifteen minute mark give your veggies a little stir around and place back in the oven for another 15 minutes.

This is what they will look like when they are finished.

To plate this Cajun Sweet Potato Bowl you will lay a little bed of rice in your bowl and place the seasoned red beans and roasted vegetables over it and dinner is done!  Top it off with a little green onion for some freshness and color and I know you and you're entire family are gonna love it.  It couldn't be easier so get in the kitchen and give it a try TONIGHT!

And as always...
