SPICY POTATO KALE BOWLS WITH MUSTARD TAHINI DRESSING

These Spicy Potato Kale Bowls with Mustard Tahini Dressing are the ideal Fall feast. Firm potatoes, red onion, marinated kale and a flavorful rich dressing. Basic and sound.

For a second I imagined that San Diego was really going to have a "Fall" this year. It was September and it is was during the 60s amid the day. I was wearing sweaters, lighting pumpkin candles… in Fall paradise. However, at that point the mists separated and we got hit with 80 degree climate once more. I know… poor me. In any case, I was truly getting a charge out of that cool climate.

All things considered, in any event we can at present imagine it is cold out by making some Fall dinners. Recently, I shared the main soup formula of the period – Vegan Enchilada Soup. What's more, today we are preparing one of my most loved go-to meals. Hot Potato Kale Bowls with Mustard Tahini Dressing!

Ingredients :

FOR THE POTATOES

• 1 lb yellow potatoes cut in bite-sized pieces
• 1 red onion diced and separated
• 1 jalapeño diced
• 1 green bell pepper diced
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 1/2 tsp paprika
• 1/2 tsp chili powder
• salt & pepper to taste

FOR THE DRESSING

• 1/2 cup tahini
• 2 tbsp red wine vinegar
• 2 tbsp yellow mustard
• lemon juice to taste
• 1 tsp oregano
• 1/2 tsp garlic salt
• pepper to taste
• water as needed

FOR THE SALAD

• 4 cups kale chopped and stems removed
• 1 lemon juiced

Instructions :

1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Combine the potatoes, 1/2 of the red onion, jalapeño, bell pepper, olive oil, paprika and chili powder in a bowl. Stir to coat evenly. Spread mixture out on the baking sheet and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place in the oven and bake for 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and flip. Cook for an additional 10-20 minutes*, or until potatoes are crispy and veggies are soft.
3. While the potatoes are cooking, combine all of the dressing ingredients in a bowl and stir to combine. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Add water until desired consistency is reached. Place in the fridge until ready to use.
4. After you make the dressing, place the kale in a large bowl and sprinkle with lemon juice. Massage for 30-60 seconds, or until the lemon juice is incorporated and the kale is soft. Place in the fridge until ready to use.
5. Remove the potatoes from the oven and sprinkle with additional salt, if needed.
6. Assemble bowls by layering kale, the remaining raw red onion and potatoes. Drizzle with dressing and serve.
