Directions
- Heat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Pierce sweet potato with a fork about 8-10 times. Place on a parchment paper lined baking sheet and put in oven for about 50-60 minutes until soft when pierced with fork. If using instant pot, place 1 cup water in pot, add trivet and place potatoes on top. Seal lid and set instant pot to Manual high pressure for about 20-22 minutes, depending on size.
- Meanwhile, combine chickpeas, spices, onion and garlic in medium bowl. Combine well.
- Heat oil in medium sauté pan. Add chickpeas and cook for about 8-10 minutes over medium heat. Mix in spinach and saute until spinach wilts, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
- To prepare Tahini drizzle, combine ingredients in small bowl. Set aside.
- Remove potatoes from oven. Allow to cool for 3-5 minutes. Cut down the middle and use a fork to fluff the potato. Add a small layer of tahini to the potato, then top with spinach and chickpea mix followed by optional toppings and another drizzle of Tahini sauce.
- Enjoy!
