Ingredients

Scale

Vegetables

  • 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and chopped into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 lb Brussels sprouts, halved
  • 2 red bell peppers, chopped into bite-sized pieces
  • 2 cups fresh spinach or arugula
  • 1 avocado, sliced

Grain Base

  • 1 cup quinoa or brown rice, uncooked

Seasonings and Oils

  • 3 tbsp olive oil (for roasting)
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper

Optional Garnishes and Dressings

  • Crunchy pumpkin seeds or toasted almonds
  • Fresh herbs like parsley or cilantro
  • Choice of dressing: tahini sauce, lemon-tahini drizzle, balsamic glaze, or fresh lemon juice

Instructions

  1. Prep Your Veggies: Wash and chop the sweet potatoes, Brussels sprouts, and red bell peppers into bite-sized pieces for even roasting. Toss them in olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, sea salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
  2. Roast to Perfection: Spread the seasoned vegetables in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast in a preheated oven at 425°F (220°C) for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until vegetables are caramelized and edges are crisp.
  3. Cook Your Grain: While the veggies roast, prepare quinoa or brown rice according to package instructions. Once cooked, fluff with a fork and keep warm.
  4. Assemble the Bowl: Place a base of cooked quinoa or brown rice into bowls. Top with the roasted vegetables, then layer with fresh spinach or arugula and slices of creamy avocado.
  5. Final Touches: Drizzle your choice of dressing or a squeeze of fresh lemon juice over the bowl. Sprinkle with seeds, nuts, or fresh herbs if desired for added texture and flavor.

Notes

  • Cut vegetables into similar sizes to ensure even roasting.
  • Roast vegetables at high heat (425°F/220°C) to caramelize and enhance sweetness.
  • Avoid overcrowding the baking sheet to prevent steaming and achieve crispness.
  • Season vegetables both before roasting and after assembling for balanced flavor layers.
  • Add avocado and fresh greens just before serving to keep them vibrant and crisp.
