1 teaspoon paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

For the Maple Dijon Tahini Dressing

¼ cup tahini

1 tablespoon maple syrup

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

1 tablespoon lemon juice

2 tablespoons water (adjust as needed)

Instructions

  7. Assemble the bowls by adding quinoa as a base, followed by the roasted veggies and chickpeas. Drizzle with maple Dijon tahini dressing.
  8. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

Swap the grains – Use brown rice, farro, or couscous instead of quinoa.

Try different veggies – Cauliflower, zucchini, carrots, or Brussels sprouts make great alternatives.

Add extra protein – Toss in tofu, tempeh, or a soft-boiled egg for more protein.

Spice it up – A pinch of cayenne or chili flakes in the dressing adds heat.

Make it nutty – Add toasted almonds or sunflower seeds for extra crunch.
