  • ½ slab extra firm tofu

  • Add the finely chopped kale until it wilts and is cooked. 
  • Add the cumin, coriander, chili powder, chili flakes, and salt at this time. 
  • Add the cooked and chopped beets and garbanzo beans in the food processor and pulse to make a nicely blended mixture.

  • Empty the contents onto a bowl and add the mashed sweet potato, crumbled tofu, breadcrumbs, and almond flour.
