  • 1/2 cup canned chickpeas
  • 1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes (chopped)
  • 2 tablespoons kalamata olives (chopped)
  • 1 cup cooked quinoa
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried dill

  • 1 tablespoon tahini
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • Pinch of salt and pepper
  • 1 - 2 tablespoons water to thin
  • chives

Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 400ºF. Puncture the sweet potatoes with a fork and place them in a baking dish. Bake until soft, and knife slides into the flesh easily, about 35 – 45 minutes depending on the size.
  2. Meanwhile, prepare the quinoa mixture by heating the oil in a saute pan over medium heat. Add the rest of the ingredients (spinach to salt & pepper) and saute until warm. Keep warm until the sweet potatoes are cooked.
  3. When the sweet potatoes are soft, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Once cooled, transfer them to a plate, split them open with a sharp knife and spoon the quinoa into the center.
