🧑🍳 How to Make the Rainbow Veggie Buddha Bowl:
Step 1: Cook the Quinoa:
Rinse the quinoa under cold water, then cook it according to the package instructions (usually 1 cup quinoa to 2 cups water). Once cooked, fluff with a fork and set aside.
Step 2: Roast the Sweet Potatoes:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Toss the cubed sweet potatoes in olive oil, salt, and pepper, and spread them on a baking sheet.
Roast for 25-30 minutes, or until tender and golden, flipping halfway through.
Step 3: Prepare the Veggies:
While the sweet potatoes roast, prepare the other veggies: slice the purple cabbage, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, shred the carrots, and slice the avocado.
Step 4: Make the Creamy Tahini Lemon Dressing:
In a small bowl, whisk together the tahini, lemon juice, olive oil, maple syrup (or honey), minced garlic, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Add water a tablespoon at a time until the dressing reaches your desired consistency (creamy but pourable).
Step 5: Assemble the Buddha Bowl:
In a large bowl, start with a base of cooked quinoa.
Arrange the roasted sweet potatoes, purple cabbage, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, shredded carrots, and avocado on top in a beautiful rainbow pattern.
Drizzle generously with the creamy tahini lemon dressing.
🍴 Serve & Enjoy:
Garnish with additional toppings like sesame seeds, hemp seeds, or fresh herbs if desired.
Enjoy your Rainbow Veggie Buddha Bowl—a fresh, nourishing, and colorful meal that’s as delightful to look at as it is to eat! 🌈🥑🥗
