BUDDHA BOWL😋

🌱 Recipe: Colorful Buddha Bowl

Ingredients (for 2 people):

  • 100 g quinoa (tri-colored quinoa gives extra color)

  • 1 sweet potato, sliced

  • 1 can of chickpeas (drained weight approx. 200 g)

  • 1 tsp paprika, pinch of cumin

  • 1/2 red cabbage, finely chopped

  • 1 avocado, sliced

  • 1 handful of baby spinach

  • 8-10 cherry tomatoes, halved

  • 1/2 lemon or lime (for dressing and garnish)

  • Olive Oil

  • Salt & pepper to taste

  • Sesame seeds (optional)

Preparation:

  1. Quinoa cooking: Rinse quinoa and cook in plenty of water according to package directions. Let cool briefly.

  2. Sweet potato roast: Heat the oven to 200°C. Drizzle the slices with olive oil and roast for about 20 min until tender and slightly crispy.

  3. Roasted chickpeas: Mix the chickpeas with olive oil, paprika, cumin and some salt. Roast in the oven for 20-25 min (with the sweet potato) until crispy.

  4. Massaging red cabbage: Knead the red cabbage with some lemon juice and salt for a softer texture.

  5. Build up: Divide everything into a nice bowl: start with quinoa, top with vegetables in separate compartments. Add avocado, spinach and tomato.

  6. Finish: Drizzle with a little lemon juice and olive oil. Garnish with sesame seeds.

✨ Tip: Vary with seasonal vegetables, add fermented vegetables for your gut or a spoonful of hummus for extra flavor and satiety.
