  • 2 15-ounce cans low sodium great northern beans, drained and rinsed

  • 1½ cups sweet potato puree

  • 2 tablespoons dijon or stone ground mustard

  • Remaining Ingredients
  • 32 ounces frozen shredded hashbrown potatoes

  • 1 red bell pepper, diced

Directions

  • Millet Crumble Directions
  • Add all the millet crumble ingredients to a 3-quart Instant Pot and cook at high pressure for 10 minutes. Allow the Instant Pot to do a natural release. *See notes for stovetop directions.
  • Fluff the cooked millet with a fork and stir to ensure all the spices and tomato paste are evenly distributed.
  • Use immediately, or store in the fridge until ready to assemble the casserole.
  • Sauce Directions
  • Add all sauce ingredients to a high speed blender or food processor and blend until smooth.
  • Casserole Assembly Directions
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Add the potatoes and bell pepper to a large mixing bowl.
  • Reserve about a cup of the millet crumble, and add the rest to the mixing bowl.
  • Reserve about a cup of the sauce, and add the rest to the mixing bowl. Then stir until everything in the bowl is evenly coated in the sauce.
  • Add the mixture to a 9 x 13-inch glass casserole dish, and smooth out the top.
  • Spread the remaining sauce evenly over the top, and crumble the remaining millet evenly over the casserole.
  • Cover with foil and bake for about an hour or until the potatoes are fully cooked through. Then uncover and bake another 10 to 15 minutes until the sauce on top is mostly dry and starting to brown around the edges.
