Ingredients

Scale

For the Bowls:

  • 1 cup dry quinoa
  • 1 tbsp olive oil (or avocado oil)
  • 2 small-medium sweet potato, cubed
  • 1 head of broccoli or 2 bunches of broccolini, chopped into florets
  • 2 large carrots, shredded or julienned
  • for topping: 1/4 cup sliced radishes, freshly chopped green onions, fresh cilantro

For the Miso Sesame Dressing*:

  • 6 tbsp rice wine vinegar
  • 5 tbsp sunflower butter, unsweetened
  • 3 tbsp coconut aminos
  • 3 tbsp maple syrup
  • 3 tbsp sesame oil
  • 2 tbsp white miso paste
  • 2 tbsp ginger, minced
  • 1 1/2 limes, juiced
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1/4 tsp chili flakes (or more for spicier)
  • 1/4–1/2 cup water

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400F.
  2. Place cubed sweet potatoes and chopped broccoli/broccolini on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil (or avocado oil). Roast for 20-25 minutes.
  3. Cook your quinoa according to the package instructions.
  4. While the vegetables are roasting and the quinoa is cooking, make the sauce.
  5. Place all the ingredients together, except for the water, in a blender and blend.
  6. Slowly add in the water until you reach your desired consistency. Add more water for a thinner sauce. The sauce will thicken in the fridge. Simply add a little water and shake the container to loosen it up again.
  7. Once your vegetables are cooked and you have prepped your other ingredients, assemble them into 4 bowls with quinoa at the base topped with roasted veggies, carrots and then sauce.
  8. Top with desired toppings and serve

Notes

*Makes more sauce than is needed for recipe but will keep for up to 1 week in the fridge.
