Notes

The cooking time for sweet potatoes varies based on size; they are done when a fork slides easily through the center. Prepared bowls can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days and reheated on the stove or in the microwave. For a nut-free version, use soy milk and sunflower seed butter instead of almond butter.
