Sweet potatoes contain antioxidants, which help prevent heart disease and cancer. Parsley helps the body excrete toxins and can cure an upset stomach. 2 sweet potatoes cubed 1 tsp cumin 1/4 cup of olive oil 1/2 cup sun dried tomatoes soaked and chopped 1/4 cup chopped, fresh parsley 1 onion finely chopped 1 cup of presoaked and cooked garbonzo beans Preheat the oven to 400 deg. F. Mix together the sweet potatoes with the cumin and a light coating of olive oil, place them in the oven until cooked approx. 25 to 30 mins. While they are cooking sauté the onions in a tbsp of oil. When brown add the sun dried tomatoes, garbonzo beans & parsley. Cook for a further 2 minutes. Once the sweet potatoes are cooked mix them in with the other ingredients & lemon juice then serve as they are or over a bed of greens. You can also add chopped avocado.
