Blue Zone Connection The combination of chickpeas, sweet potatoes, cauliflower and carrots keeps this recipe centered on whole and minimally processed plant foods. That approach is consistent with the plant-forward eating pattern associated with Loma Linda. This is a modern Blue Zone–inspired recipe, not a traditional Loma Linda dish.
Helpful Notes Cut the vegetables into similar-size pieces so they finish cooking together. Add fresh herbs and citrus after cooking to brighten the warm spices. Estimated Nutrition Per serving
