Healthy Harvest Glow Bowl

A vibrant and nourishing autumn-inspired bowl featuring roasted vegetables, fluffy quinoa, and a zesty lemon tahini dressing.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup quinoa, rinsed
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 medium sweet potato, cubed
  • 1 cup Brussels sprouts, halved
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 cup kale, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional: 1/4 cup pumpkin seeds
  • Optional: 1/4 cup dried cranberries
  • Optional: 1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled
  • Optional: 1/2 avocado, sliced

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Rinse and drain the quinoa. In a medium saucepan, combine with 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes until fluffy.
  3. While quinoa cooks, prepare the vegetables: cube the sweet potato, halve the Brussels sprouts, and slice the red bell pepper.
  4. On a baking sheet, toss sweet potato, Brussels sprouts, and bell pepper with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread in a single layer.
  5. Roast in the oven for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through, until tender and caramelized.
  6. In the last 5 minutes of roasting, add the chopped kale to the baking sheet to wilt slightly.
  7. Assemble the bowl: layer quinoa, roasted vegetables, and your choice of optional add-ins.
  8. Drizzle with lemon tahini dressing before serving.

Notes

Toast the pumpkin seeds for extra crunch. Avoid overcooking the quinoa—keep it light and fluffy. If using feta, go easy on the salt in the dressing.
