Rainbow Buddha Bowl Prep (5 boxes)

Five plant-powered bowls from one roast: chickpeas, quinoa and a rainbow of roasted veg with a tahini pot on the side.

Ingredients

  • 800g chickpeas, drained
  • 1½ cups quinoa (dry)
  • 2 sweet potatoes, chunked
  • 2 beetroot, chunked
  • 2 carrots, chunked
  • 1 head broccoli, in florets
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • Tahini-lemon dressing (packed separately)

Method

  1. 1

    Cook the quinoa; spread on a tray to cool fast.

  2. 2

    Roast all the veg and half the chickpeas in oil and paprika at 200°C (400°F) for 25–30 minutes.

  3. 3

    Build 5 boxes: quinoa, roasted veg, remaining chickpeas.

  4. 4

    Cool, lid, refrigerate within 2 hours.

  5. 5

    Pack the tahini dressing in side pots — dress only when eating.

Swaps & variations

  • Any hearty roastable veg
  • Add feta or a boiled egg
  • Brown rice instead of quinoa

Storing & freezing

Fridge 4 days. Dressing separate is the difference between day-4 delicious and day-2 soggy.
