  • 1/2 cucumber thinly sliced

  • 150 gr Chickpeas roasted (spicy version: with chipotle or chili, cumin, garlic, onion)
  • 2 tbsp Peanuts chopped, salted & roasted
  • 1 tbsp Sesame Seeds Alternative: Pumpkin Seeds or Sunflower Seeds

Ingredients for the Tahini Dressing:

Anleitung

  • Cook the quinoa: Rinse the quinoa thoroughly and cook it in a small pot or rice cooker with double the amount of water until tender.
  • Roast the sweet potato: While the quinoa is cooking, dice the sweet potato and toss it with a bit of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Optional: add paprika powder, basil, or oregano.
  • Spread on a baking tray and roast at 200°C (392°F) for about 20–25 minutes until soft and slightly caramelized.
  • Prepare the roasted chickpeas: Sauté chickpeas in a pan with olive oil, salt, onion, and your preferred spices (e.g. chipotle, chili, garlic, cumin) until crispy. Alternatively, you can roast them in the oven with the sweet potatoes.
  • Prep the fresh ingredients: Wash the greens, tomatoes, and cucumber. Slice the avocado, and cut tomatoes and cucumber as needed.
  • Make the tahini dressing: Blend all dressing ingredients in a blender until smooth. If the dressing is too thick, add a bit of water until you reach your desired consistency.
  • Assemble the bowl: Divide the cooked quinoa into two bowls. Arrange the roasted sweet potatoes, avocado, tomatoes, cucumber, and chickpeas on top.
  • Drizzle with tahini dressing and sprinkle with sesame seeds and chopped peanuts. Serve immediately.
