Simple and healthy recipe
1 sweet potato, grated
1 bunch collard greens, chopped
Frozen Edamame
I used a rice cooker to cook the rice. Put in 1 cup water, 1 cup rice and 1 tsp. olive oil. It should take about 1/2 hour to cook.
Meanwhile, grate the sweet potato and add it to a lightly oiled, hot skillet (I'm a fan of grape seed oil)
While the sweet potatoes are cooking, place the Edamame in a pan with a couple inches of water. Cook for about 10 minutes, drain with cold water and set aside.
When sweet potatoes are soft, add the chard and cook until the chard is just wilted; season with salt and pepper.
When the rice is cooked add it to a plate along witht the sweet potato/chard mixture and the edamame beans.
When I eat low fat, high fiber, nutrient dense dishes like this one, my body literally feels happy.
