Step 2
Toss sweet potatoes with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Roast for 15 minutes or until tender and golden.
Step 3
In a large skillet heat the remaining olive oil over medium heat. Add peas, carrots, and red bell peppers. Cook for 2 minutes. Combine with rice, sweet potatoes, kale, and red onions.
Step 4
Combine rice, sweet potatoes, kale and red onions. Blend mayonnaise with maple syrup and Sriracha; toss together with rice mixture. Top with goat cheese.
Replace the sweet potato with butternut squash if preferred. Substitute sweet chili sauce for maple syrup.
