Instructions

 

Swiss Chard Veggie Bowl ingredients

• Gather your ingredients together.
  
• Chop the chard.
  
• In a deep skillet or wok, sauté your onions & garlic in coconut oil until fragrant.
• Once the onions have softened and have become translucent, add the turmeric, you will have a beautiful & vibrant yellow color.
  
• Add the chopped Swiss chard stems, mushrooms, broccoli and sprinkle a little bit of sea salt on top to help extract some of their juices.
• Add a little water to the pan and cover with a lid so the steam can cook the vegetables.
• Add the Swiss chard ribbons and tamarind sauce to your skillet and let it simmer uncovered for just a few minutes (5 max).
• Do not overcook your veggies.
• This whole process should take about 10-12 minutes maximum, the veggies should stay crisp and the Swiss chard leaves a vibrant green.
• Once the chard leaves have softened up a bit, remove your skillet from the heat and sprinkle some red hot pepper flakes & curried roasted cashews.

Curried Roasted Cashews

• Heat the oven to 350 degrees.
• Combine all of the spices together.
  
• Melt the coconut oil in a pan and add the mixed spices.
• Warm up the spices until fragrant (2-3 minutes) on a low heat.
• Place the cashews in a bowl and mix in the spices.
• Once all of the cashews are fully coated place them on a baking sheet covered with parchment paper.
• Bake for 10-12 minutes (shaking them once or twice to get them properly roasted on all sides).
• They will easily burn, so please be careful and keep an eye on them.
• Cool the cashews for a few minutes, and serve on top of the Swiss chard.
  

Notes
