Gluten free and vegetarian does not have to mean bland or boring food. A few nights ago I made the above dish, to rave reviews from my children.
Baked sweet potatoes, mashed with butter, milk and salt. Steamed carrots and broccoli with a little bit of salt. Sauteed dinosaur kale and red onions, seasoned with salt and pepper. Dinosaur kale has a sweeter taste than regular curly kale. Along with the mashed potatoes I sauteed leeks, green onions, green peas and toasted walnuts. Baked sweet potatoes have a sweeter and creamier taste than just boiling sweet potatoes and then mashing them like regular mashed potatoes. ( I know from experience)
The flavors of each vegetable complemented each other beautifully and there were no left overs :).
For extra color you can saute some red and yellow peppers seasoned with salt and pepper as another side dish.
