Ingredients
For the Bowls
- 1 cup grain of choice rinsed (I used farro but quinoa works too)
- 1 oz can chickpeas, drained and rinsed (garbanzo beans)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil divided
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon Turmeric
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 small red onion sliced into wedges
- 1 head broccoli cut into medium florets
- 1 small sweet potato cut into 1" cubes
- 1 cup chopped kale massaged with olive oil
Ginger Tahini Dressing
- ¼ cup Tahini or sub sunflower seed butter, or a nut butter - see notes in post
- 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1.5 tablespoons Coconut aminos
- 1 clove garlic
- 1 inch cube fresh ginger peeled and chopped (or ½ tablespoon ginger paste)
- sea salt to taste (test first then add as you'd like)
- 2-3 tablespoons water to thin as desired
Instructions
- Cook grain: Prepare grain of choice according to package instructions; set aside. Move on to preparing the veggies as the grain is cooking
- Make veggies: Preheat oven to 375ºF and line large baking sheet with parchment paper. Add chickpeas to bowl with 1 tablespoon olive oil and dry seasonings, toss to combine and set aside. Add red onion, chopped broccoli and sweet potatoes to baking sheet; drizzle with remaining olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Add seasoned chickpeas next to other veggies and transfer sheet pan to oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until broccoli is soft and sweet potatoes are tender. Note: if you want crisper chickpeas, remove any cooked veggies from pan and continue cooking chickpeas another 5-10 minutes.
- Make dressing: Add all dressing ingredients to a small blender (I used my NutriBullet) and blend until smooth. Start with 1 tablespoon of water then add 1-2 more tablespoons, depending on desired consistency.
- Assemble bowls: Divide desired amount of grains into two bowls and evenly distribute broccoli, sweet potatoes, red onion, chickpeas, and chopped kale. Drizzle with dressing and serve warm; enjoy!
Notes
- Yield will depend on how small or large broccoli and sweet potato are, and how many grains you want per serving. I find this recipe yields 2-3 larger portions, or 4 medium sized portions.
- Feel free to use the grain of your choice. Quinoa, rice, farro and freekeh are all great options.
