A pinch of sea salt

For the Sweet Potato Pasta:
2 medium-sized sweet potatoes
1 tablespoon olive oil
Salt and pepper, to taste
2 cloves garlic, minced
Fresh basil leaves, for garnish
Parmesan cheese (optional, for topping)
For the Cauliflower Rice Stir-Fry:
1 head of cauliflower, grated into rice-sized pieces
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1/2 cup diced bell peppers
1/4 cup peas (fresh or frozen)
2 tablespoons soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
1/2 teaspoon grated ginger
1 egg (optional, for extra protein)
1 tablespoon chopped green onions
Instructions:
Avocado Chocolate Mousse:
Scoop the flesh of the avocados into a food processor or blender.
Add the cacao powder, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, and sea salt. Blend until smooth and creamy.
Slowly add the almond milk, one tablespoon at a time, until you reach the desired consistency.
Chill in the fridge for at least 30 minutes before serving.
Sweet Potato Pasta:
Peel and spiralize the sweet potatoes into long, noodle-like strands using a spiralizer.
Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium heat and sauté the garlic until fragrant.
Add the sweet potato noodles and sauté for about 7-10 minutes, or until they soften but still have some bite.
Season with salt and pepper to taste, and serve with fresh basil leaves and Parmesan cheese, if desired.
Cauliflower Rice Stir-Fry:
Grate the cauliflower into rice-sized pieces using a box grater or food processor.
Heat the sesame oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the bell peppers and peas, stir-frying for 3-5 minutes.
Add the grated cauliflower and soy sauce, stirring constantly for another 5-7 minutes, until the cauliflower softens.
Push the vegetables to one side of the pan and scramble the egg in the empty space (optional).
Stir everything together, then garnish with chopped green onions before serving.
Serving and Storage Tips:
Avocado Chocolate Mousse: Serve chilled in small cups or bowls, topped with crushed nuts or berries for added texture. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2-3 days.
