Grilled sweet potato and cauliflower with pepper garlic dip

| | |

Easy to make traybake with just vegetables and herbs. You can make it as traybake or in a ovendish. Just cube two sweet potatoes and half a head of cauliflower. Mix in a bowl with extra virgin olive oil and spices and herbs. Combined with a red bell pepper and a bulb of garlic to make the dip.

Paleo and bell pepper

I put this recipe in the Paleo category in spite if the bell pepper. Peppers are nightshades and can’t be eaten in a strict Paleo diet. But there are a lot of people that do eat peppers and tomatoes. It’s a sort of heated discussion in the Paleo community. So make your own choices!

Medical Medium and oil

This recipes calls for some oil to grill the vegetables. If you wish to eat as low fat as possible you can steam the sweet potato and cauliflower for 20 minutes. Roasting is still the best option for the dip. The bell pepper needs no oil, and you can leave to oil out for the garlic as well.
