Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1 cups (237 ml) sorghum
- 2.5 cups (592 ml) water
- 1 delicata squash
- 3 tablespoons (44 ml) olive oil
- 1 recipe Tahini Tofu
- 1 bunch Swiss chard
- 2 cloves garlic
- 2 tsp red wine vinegar
- salt
- pepper
- 2-3 tbsp tahini
Instructions
- Cook sorghum: Combine sorghum and water in a pot. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 50 minutes. Remove from heat, cover, and let rest for 10 minutes. Remove the lid, stir, drain excess water, and sprinkle with salt.
- Roast squash: Preheat oven to 400°F (204°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Toss squash with 2 teaspoons olive oil and salt. Roast in a single layer for 25 minutes, or until tender and beginning to brown.
- Prepare Swiss chard: Wash and dry chard. Remove stems and finely chop. Roll leaves into a cylinder and cut into 1/2-inch ribbons. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat. Add chopped stems and cook for 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Add sliced leaves, salt, and stir. Cook for 6-8 minutes, until wilted and tender, tossing occasionally. Add red wine vinegar, stir, and remove from heat. Season with salt and pepper.
- Assemble the bowls: Use a few scoops of sorghum as a base. Top with roasted squash, sauteed chard, tahini tofu, and a drizzle of tahini.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, roast the delicata squash with a sprinkle of maple syrup or brown sugar.
- If you don’t have Swiss chard, substitute with kale or spinach; adjust cooking time as needed.
- Leftover cooked sorghum can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 4 days; reheat gently before using.
