Sweet Potato and Spicy Hummus Noodle Bowl
Spiralized sweet potatoes are a great, gluten-free way to enjoy “pasta.” Here, they’re topped with a satisfyingly savory hummus sauce, tons of crunchy veggies, and spicy sesame oil. Yum.
If you don’t have a spiralizer, just finely dice the sweet potatoes and then boil or steam them until barely tender.

Sweet Potato and Spicy Hummus Noodle Bowl
| 2 Tablespoons cooking oil |
| 1 14- to 16 Ounces package extra firm tofu or 8 ounces chicken, cut into 3/4-inch dice |
| 1 ¼ Cups hummus, divided |
| ¼ Cup chicken or vegetable broth |
| 2 Tablespoons soy sauce |
| 1 Teaspoon hot chili sesame oil, plus more for serving |
| 2 ½ Pounds orange- or yellow/white-fleshed sweet potatoes, cut into spaghetti-sized noodles with a spiralizer |
| 1 ½ Persian- or Asian-style cucumbers, thinly sliced, or 3/4 regular cucumber, peeled and thinly sliced |

Sweet Potato and Spicy Hummus Noodle Bowl Directions
- In a large skillet over medium heat, warm the cooking oil. Add the tofu or chicken and cook, stirring occasionally, until the tofu is well browned, 6 to 8 minutes, or the chicken is cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
- While the tofu or chicken is cooking, in a small bowl, combine 3/4 cup of the hummus with the broth, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Set aside.
- In a large pot of boiling, well-salted water, cook the sweet potato noodles until al dente, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain, transfer to serving bowls, and drizzle with the hummus mixture.
- Top with the tofu or chicken, cucumber, radishes, scallions, cilantro, and remaining 1/2 cup of hummus. Sprinkle with the sesame seeds and serve, with more sesame oil alongside.
