Ingredients

Pita

  • 1 medium boiled sweet potato mashed equals about 1 1/4 cup
  • 3/4 cup cassava flour
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt

Pesto

  • 2 cups chopped kale
  • 1/2 large avocado pitted
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1/4-1/2 cup water
  • 1 large garlic clove
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt to taste
  • lemon juice from 1 lemon

Toppings

  • 4 cups cauliflower chopped
  • 1 canned roasted red bell pepper sliced
  • 4 large eggs soft boiled
  • lime juice to taste
  • chili flakes to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350F.
  • In a food processor or bowl combine ingredients for pitas until smooth. Note: Add more or less cassava flour to get the dough to be pliable. If you don't have cooked sweet potato on hand, make it by peeling a large sweet potato, cutting into 2" chunks, and boiling in water until soft (drain water from sweet potatoes after boiling).
  • Separate dough into 4-5 equal parts and press down with your fingers into flat 5" pitas on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Bake on 350F for 10 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  • Preheat oven to 425F. Add chopped cauliflower on a baking tray lined with parchment paper, drizzle with olive oil, salt and pepper to taste, and bake on 425F for 30 minutes.
  • To make soft boiled eggs, bring a pot of water to a boil then add eggs and boil for 7 minutes. Remove eggs and chill in an ice bath before peeling.
  • In a food processor blend ingredients for kale pesto until it reaches desired consistency.
  • Assemble pitas by layering on pesto, roasted cauliflower, red peppers, and eggs. Top with fresh lime juice, chili flakes, and coconut milk to taste.
