How to Prepare Moroccan Quinoa Stuffed Sweet Potatoes [Vegan]

Preheat the oven to 375° F and line a baking tray with foil.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over high heat and add garlic, onion, peppers, cauliflower, and green beans. Sauté over heat for 5-6 minutes until they start to brown and soften. Reduce heat to medium, add tomato and chickpeas, and continue cooking for about 5 minutes longer. Stir in peanut butter and spices until combined then mix in quinoa and water. Reduce heat to low, place a lid over pan, and simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the liquid is absorbed. Remove from heat.
Slit your sweet potatoes in half lengthwise and place slightly open-face on the prepared tray. Scoop large spoonfuls of filling into each potato and if desired top with pumpkin seeds. Place tray in the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes until tops are browned and potatoes are nice and hot. Remove from oven and cool for a few minutes. Serve warm.
