Ingredients:

• 2 large sweet potatoes, peeled
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 small onion, finely chopped
• 1 bell pepper, sliced
• 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
• 1/2 cup vegetable or chicken broth
• 1 tsp dried thyme
• 1 tsp dried oregano
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish

Instructions:

1. Make the Noodles: Using a spiralizer, cut the sweet potatoes into noodles. If you don't have a spiralizer, you can use a julienne peeler or simply cut the sweet potatoes into thin strips.
2. Sauté the Vegetables: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and chopped onion, cooking until fragrant and translucent, about 5 minutes.
3. Add the Sweet Potato Noodles: Add the sweet potato noodles to the skillet and cook for about 5-7 minutes, tossing occasionally, until they begin to soften.
4. Add Broth and Seasoning: Pour in the vegetable or chicken broth, and add the sliced bell pepper, cherry tomatoes, dried thyme, and dried oregano. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for another 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender and the noodles are cooked through but still slightly firm.
5. Serve: Transfer the sweet potato noodles to a serving dish and garnish with chopped fresh parsley. Serve immediately.
