Ingredients

Scale

Grains

  • 1 cup quinoa, cooked

Vegetables

  • 2 cups mixed vegetables (bell peppers, zucchini, broccoli), roasted
  • 1 avocado, sliced

Dressing & Garnish

  • 1/4 cup tahini dressing
  • Chopped green onions, for garnish
  • Sesame seeds, for garnish
  • Olive oil, for roasting vegetables
  • Salt, to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Quinoa: Rinse 1 cup of quinoa under cold water, then cook it according to package instructions (typically simmering 1 part quinoa to 2 parts water for about 15 minutes) until fluffy and water is absorbed. Set aside to cool slightly.
  2. Roast the Vegetables: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss 2 cups of mixed vegetables like bell peppers, zucchini, and broccoli with olive oil and salt to taste. Spread them on a baking sheet in a single layer and roast for 20-25 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly caramelized, stirring halfway through.
  3. Assemble the Bowl: Place the cooked quinoa at the base of your serving bowl. Top with the warm roasted vegetables and arrange sliced avocado over the top.
  4. Add Dressing and Garnish: Drizzle 1/4 cup of tahini dressing evenly over the bowl. Finish with a sprinkle of chopped green onions and sesame seeds for a fresh, crunchy touch.

Notes

  • You can substitute or add any seasonal vegetables such as carrots or asparagus for roasting.
  • Tahini dressing can be homemade or store-bought; adding a squeeze of lemon juice and garlic enhances flavor.
  • For extra protein, consider adding chickpeas or grilled tofu to the bowl.
  • This bowl is excellent served warm or at room temperature, suitable for meal prepping.
