Instructions
- Rinse quinoa under cold water. Cook in a saucepan with 2 cups water; bring to boil, cover, reduce heat, and simmer for about 15 minutes until water is absorbed. Fluff with a fork and keep it warm.
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss diced sweet potatoes in olive oil, cumin, salt, and pepper. Roast on a baking sheet for about 25 minutes until tender. Turn once halfway through.
- In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat; add chickpeas with turmeric, cumin, salt, and pepper. Sauté for about 10 minutes until crispy.
- Whisk together tahini, yogurt, lemon juice, salt, and enough water to achieve desired consistency.
- Assemble bowls by layering quinoa as the base followed by roasted sweet potatoes and chickpeas. Top with spinach leaves and avocado slices. Drizzle with tahini yogurt sauce.
Notes
- Make sure to rinse the quinoa to remove bitterness. The tahini sauce improves as it sits, so feel free to make it ahead of time.
