SoWa Winter Market Food – Samira’s Homemade

Are you looking for a quick & delicious dinner idea for Sunday? Look no further than the authentic Egyptian & Lebanese food from Samira’s Homemade.

Samira’s Homemade offers some of the best hummus we’ve ever tasted. Pick up some of their pita bread to dip into any of the hummus flavors for the perfect combination. Varieties include: Original Hummus, Roasted Red Pepper Hummus, Kalamata Olive Hummus, Sun-Dried & Basil Hummus, Hummus w/Jalapeno. We also recommend Samira’s famous stuffed grape leaves. Try their original recipe stuffed with “a tantalizing mixture of rice, onions, dill and mint.” They also offer a spicy variety for an extra kick.

Come to the SoWa Winter Market on Sunday from 10am-3pm to pick up an assortment of dishes made from healthy, fresh ingredients with no added preservatives.

SoWa Winter Market Recipe – Kale and Sweet Potato Mash

This week’s recipe comes to us from Veggie Belly. Pick up your farm fresh kale and sweet potatoes at this Sunday’s SoWa Winter Market.

Kale and Goat Cheese Mashed Sweet Potato Recipe

serves about 4

Ingredients

2 lb (about 2 large) sweet potatoes or garnet yams
4 cups shredded kale
4 oz goat cheese
1 cup milk
Salt, freshly cracked black pepper
2 tablespoons brown sugar or maple syrup (optional)

Method
Peel the sweet potato or yams. Cut into even sized 1 inch cubes. Place the sweet potatoes in a large pot filled with water. Boil uncovered for 15 minutes or till they are very soft.

Drain the sweet potatoes well and leave them in the colander.

In the same pot, add the kale, goats cheese and milk and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer till the kale has just wilted. Add salt and pepper. Turn off heat.

Add the cooked sweet potatoes to the hot kale and milk. Mash well. If the mashed sweet potato is too thick, add more milk to thin it out to your liking.
