Sweet Potato Tian Provençal

October 19, 2015 · 1 Comment

Sweet Potato Tian ProvencalI have a fast and healthy baked dish for you. It does everything to showcase the best of this season’s earthy flavors.

Fall is often known for its vegetables but this season’s herbs are what make favorite vegetables, like squash, taste delicious. I love combining herbs like rosemary with tarragon and sage, or basil with oregano, it’s fun to taste each blend. I wanted to take advantage of the fresh herbs I still had growing in the garden, wanting them to be the main seasoning for this Tian Provençal, the french version of a layered vegetable casserole.
Sweet Potato Tian ProvencalSweet Potato Tian ProvencalI totally cheated, I baked the potatoes in the microwave, but it saves so much time, especially on work nights! Wash your potatoes, poke a few holes, wrap them with a paper towel and microwave until tender, about seven minutes. It’s that easy, and some days I’ll take it a step further and cut the baked potatoes into quarters and sear them on a hot sauté pan I already have on the stove. You can even do this with beets too, but they will take an additional five minutes. But anyway back to this baked vegetable dish, I’m all about hearty and comforting autumn meals that are quick.  Sweet Potato Tian ProvencalThere are thinly sliced tomatoes, eggplant, and zucchini that top a layer of slightly mashed sweet potatoes. It’s a mix of the absolute last of summer’s vegetables, yes it’s true farmer’s market are nearing the end of their season here in New Jersey. This traditional tian is still delicious even if you aren’t using in season tomatoes, when baked, vegetables always taste great. You, of course can use your favorite vegetables and spices.Sweet Potato Tian Provencal Sweet Potato Tian Provencal Sweet Potato Tian ProvencalFor fellow vegetarians, Thanksgiving can be a difficult day to celebrate if eating at someone else’s home. Along with these great recipes, this sweet potato tian Provençal is a delicious vegetarian dish that you can bring for Thanksgiving, ensuring you eat, and perfect enough to share as a side dish. Just make sure to make enough for everyone to have some!

Sweet Potato Tian Provençal

Ingredients {Serves 6}

6 tablespoons – Extra Virgin Olive Oil

4 – Dried Bay Leaves

5 to 6 sprigs – Fresh Tarragon

4 sprigs – Fresh Rosemary

1 tablespoon – Dried Oregano

Course Sea Salt and Fresh Ground Pepper

Dash Cayenne Pepper, optional 

3 medium – Sweet Potatoes

1 medium – Eggplant {cut into 1/8″ rounds}

1 large – Zucchini {cut into 1/8″ rounds}

2 medium – Tomatoes {cut into 1/8″ rounds}

Freshly Grated Parmesan Reggiano

Recipe {Adapted from Martha Stewart Living} 

Preheat oven to 425* F, and coat the bottom of a 9X13″ baking dish with the olive oil, seasoning with salt, pepper fresh and dried herbs. Bake sweet potatoes over the stove or wrapped in paper towel and microwaved for a few minutes, just until a knife goes through {you don’t want to overcook them, since they will be baked additionally}. Allow the sweet potatoes to cool enough where you can handle and slice into 1/4″ rounds.

Layer the sweet potato rounds at the bottom of the baking dish, drizzle with 2 tablespoons olive oil and season with salt and pepper, repeat in this order with half the eggplant, zucchini and tomatoes. Sprinkle the top of the tomato layer with cheese. Repeat layering steps with the remaining eggplant, zucchini and tomatoes, finishing with sprinkle of grated cheese.

Bake until vegetables are tender enough a knife goes through easily and edges are slightly crisped, and the cheese is melted {about 30 minutes}. Allow to cool slightly before serving.

I love everything about entertaining. Flowers are my weakness, a slice of homemade pie makes my heart sing & I’m a sucker for wedding videos. Travel is a constant source of inspiration and motivation. I dream about these things, it’s true. But what I love most, is working with amazing people to create meaningful & unique celebrations…..

Mondays certainly don’t get enough love, I perso Mondays certainly don’t get enough love, I personally find it to be one of the most productive days of the workweek, but it’s a day that is also slower than the rest...

I start Mondays slower than others — light incense, open my windows wide to let the fresh air in, meditate, play beautiful music...
There are a few Mondays I truly love where I get inspired to create while others I ride the winter slow sun & let my thoughts be put into written word! 

I have a beautiful romantic styling coming this week, plus a few more travels around Serra’s outdoor beauty & even a batch of new yummy recipes. I really like when I’m inspired to create & write again🤍🌿📝
Woke up feeling a bit more hopeful & lighter after Woke up feeling a bit more hopeful & lighter after yesterday’s historic day. change won’t happen all at once, there is much to work on...
but for the first time in some time,
I know many are easing up those tense shoulders
& releasing a big deep breathe of relief...

it’s okay to feel good
about releasing all the energy
from the last four years,
we deserve to celebrate
letting go of that...but I do feel
this overall newfound sense of hope,
of inspiration, of drive, motivation,
one we haven’t felt in sometime,
a sigh of relief, that at least,
we’re taking the first steps 
to expand & better the days ahead for all🌾🧡✨
This week may have been a lot but at least it ende This week may have been a lot but at least it ended w. pretty flowers for little Adelaide! Her 3rd birthday may not be as big as her “Some Bunny is 1” or “Peppa Pig Muddy Puddles” celebrations but her loved ones are sure to make her special day “Berry Sweet”🍓🌸
E X P A N S I O N — "the act or process of expan E X P A N S I O N — "the act or process of expanding"💫

this year I choose to expand on the
lessons last year served us...
I expand upon all my visions, dreams & intentions
I aim to expand on love, abundance, health, joy, comfort, courage, creativity, adventure, calm, authenticity, w.e big or small that makes my soul sing & thus expand upon my growth.
But I wholeheartedly hope that this year can help others expand on all the good things they want as well -- especially in global terms🤍

I haven't set resolutions in years, instead I always set intentions -- little things that become part of who I am & in turn become the steps to bring all those images I'm inspired by, into life in my own way.

I'm simplifying even more & stripping it down, choosing to always show myself, & others,
more Grace. I quite enjoy this slow but intentional path. Yes, embracing a fresh new start seems appealing, but there’s much uncertainty still to face & we have a whole year ahead of us.

There’s time to get it done so no need to rush into it...show yourself & others some grace, be a Kind human always, because anything can happen✨
