Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup quinoa, rinsed
  • 2 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 (15-ounce) can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
  • 1/4 cup tahini
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a large bowl, toss the Brussels sprouts with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them in a single layer on a baking sheet.
  3. Roast for 20-25 minutes, or until tender and slightly caramelized, flipping halfway through.
  4. While the Brussels sprouts are roasting, cook the quinoa. In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed quinoa and vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes, or until the liquid is absorbed and the quinoa is fluffy.
  5. In a small bowl, whisk together the tahini, lemon juice, water, minced garlic, and a pinch of salt and pepper until smooth. Add more water if needed to reach desired consistency.
  6. To assemble the bowls, divide the cooked quinoa among serving bowls. Top with the roasted Brussels sprouts and chickpeas.
  7. Drizzle the tahini-lemon dressing over each bowl.

Notes

  • Feel free to add other vegetables like sweet potatoes or bell peppers to your bowl.
  • For an extra boost of flavor, add a sprinkle of red pepper flakes to the Brussels sprouts before roasting.
  • You can make the quinoa and roast the Brussels sprouts ahead of time for a quicker assembly.
