I recently discovered Purple Carrot, a vegan meal preparation company that delivers meals to your door. I suffer greatly from Acid Reflux. I have learned thru the years what foods will cause this burning... the usual offenders are bread, cakes, red wine sometimes and dark chocolate. The breads or the wheat products are the absolute worst. BUT... since I have switched to eating mostly Vegan or more of a plant based diet, my Acid reflux has all but disappeared. If this sounds interesting to you, or if you just want to try more of a plant based diet, then I Strongly recommend Purple Carrot. The food tastes great and it will help you with any Heartburn and Acid reflux issues you may be suffering thru. Here is a link that you can research the company further --> Purple Carrot Plant Based Meals.
BTW - I am NOT being paid to promote this company... I just love them and want them to succeed. 🙂 Enjoy!

Ingredients
- 2 sweet potatoes
- 1 scallion
- 4 oz grape tomatoes
- 1 lime
- 1 cup corn kernels
- 2 garlic cloves
- 6 oz Lacinato kale
- 14 oz of black beans
- 2 tbsp vegan butter
- 2 tbsp raspberry preserves
- ½ tsp chipotle morita powder * this item may be spicy
Instructions
- 1 - Preheat the oven to 425 F. Cut the sweet potatoes in half lengthwise. Place them all on a baking sheet and rub each half with 1 tsp vegetable oil and a dash of salt and pepper. Roast, cut side down, until the sweet potatoes are tender…usually 22-25 minutes.
- 2 - Thinly slice the scallions. Halve the grape tomatoes. Halve the lime, juice one half into a medium bowl and cut the remaining half into wedges. Add the corn kernels, sliced scallions, halved tomatoes along with a dash of salt. Toss the corn salsa to combine.
- 3 - Mince the garlic. Destem the kale and roughly chop the leaves. Drain and rinse the black beans. In a small bowl, add the butter, raspberry preserves and as much of the morita powder as you like or can stand. Mix this well into the Raspberry Chipotle Butter.
- Hint: I’d recommend that you start with a very small amount of the Chipotle morita powder. It actually has a smokey taste that you may like or not.
- 4 - Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat with 2 tsp vegetable oil. Add the minced garlic and cook until fragrant…usually about 1-2 minutes. Add the chopped kale and a dash of salt and cook until wilted…usually 3-4 minutes. Add the black beans and cook until hot…usually 3-4 minutes. Taste and add salt accordingly.
- 5 - Flip the roasted sweet potatoes over and lightly mash with a fork. Add a dollop of raspberry chipotle butter. Divide the sautéed kale and black beans between large bowls and add the raspberry chipotle sweet potatoes. Top these bowls with the corn salsa and serve with the lime wedges.
- Bon appetit!
