Spiralizer alternative:
If you have an hourglass spiralizer, cut the potato in half lengthwise before using it or substitute a carrot. Spiralize using the thin-cutting blade.

1 sweet potato, peeled, ends cut flat, and spiralized into spaghetti noodles

2 tablespoons coconut oil

1 pear, peeled, cored, and cut into ¼-inch dice

½ cup coconut milk

½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg

Pinch sea salt

1. In a food processor, pulse the sweet potato noodles until it resembles rice, about 20 one-second pulses.

2. In a large sauté pan, heat the coconut oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers.

3. Add the pear and cook, stirring occasionally, until it begins to brown, about 5 minutes.

4. Add the sweet potato rice and cook, stirring occasionally, until it is soft and starts to brown, about 5 minutes more.

5. Stir in the coconut milk, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Cook, stirring frequently, until warmed through, 3 or 4 minutes more.

6. Serve immediately.
