Notes
- To make this beet Buddha bowl whole30-approved you need to sub out the quinoa for cauliflower rice or something like roasted sweet potatoes. Likewise, ditch the chickpeas as well and just eliminate the maple syrup in the dressing all together.
- The dressing can be placed on the bowl ahead of time and left to sit or drizzled on right before eating.
- Cook the quinoa ahead of time to make it a 15 minute meal.
- Store the bowl in the fridge for 2-3 days.
- Add ins like roasted sweet potato in place of quinoa are always tasty too. Likewise, using roasted veggies or roasted beets in the cooler months are a warm comfort swap.
