Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Place a rack in the center of your oven and preheat to 425°F. For easy clean up, line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, place the sweet potatoes, red onion., and chickpeas. Drizzle with the oil, then sprinkle with the chili powder, paprika, garlic powder, and salt. Toss to evenly coat, then spread into an even layer on the prepared baking sheet. Keep the bowl handy (no need to wipe it out).
  3. Bake for 40 to 50 minutes, turning halfway through, until the sweet potatoes are tender and the chickpeas are golden. Set aside.
  4. Thinly slice kale leaves into fine ribbons. Transfer to the bowl you used for the sweet potatoes. Grab it by large handfuls, squeezing and massaging until the kale turns darker green and is lightly fragrant.
  5. While the veggies and chickpeas finish up, prepare the dressing and any remaining toppings.
  6. Assemble the bowl: For each bowl, add a portion of the quinoa, kale, roasted vegetables and chickpeas, shredded chicken, cabbage, cucumbers, and tomatoes. Finish with the dressing, hot sauce, and sprinkle of feta.

Notes

  • TO STORE: To keep everything fresh, you can assemble the bowls ahead of time except for the hot sauce and green goddess dressing—put these in small containers and tuck them inside the bowls if you’re bringing them to work, otherwise just keep the dressing in a jar in the refrigerator. The bowls will last up to 3 days, while the dressing will last up to a week.
