Hey there, foodies! I’m super excited to share this absolutely divine recipe that’s been getting rave reviews from my family and friends. Trust me, once you try this Honey-Glazed Quinoa Buddha Bowl with Roasted Chickpeas, you’ll be wondering where it’s been all your life! 💁♀️
Let me tell you, this isn’t just any ordinary bowl – it’s packed with protein, fiber, and all those good-for-you nutrients that’ll keep you feeling fabulous throughout the day. Plus, it’s totally Instagram-worthy (wink wink)!
What You’ll Need:
– 1 cup quinoa
– 1 can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
– 2 sweet potatoes, cubed
– 2 cups kale, chopped
– 1 avocado
– 2 tbsp honey
– Olive oil
– Your favorite spices (I’m obsessed with cumin and paprika!)
Okay queens, let’s get cooking! 👩🍳
First things first, preheat that oven to 400°F. While that’s heating up, rinse your quinoa (don’t skip this step unless you want bitter quinoa – trust me, been there, done that!).
_Quick pause_ – If you’re loving this recipe so far, make sure to follow me on Newsbreak for more mouth-watering recipes that’ll make your taste buds dance! 💃
Now, toss those chickpeas and sweet potato cubes with olive oil and spices. Spread them on a baking sheet and roast for about 25-30 minutes, or until they’re golden and crispy (I may or may not sneak a few chickpeas while they’re cooling 😉).
Meanwhile, cook your quinoa according to package instructions. Pro tip: I like to use vegetable broth instead of water for extra flavor – you’re welcome!
When everything’s ready, assemble your bowl: quinoa on the bottom, topped with your roasted goodies, fresh kale, and sliced avocado. Drizzle with honey and a splash of olive oil, and voilà!
This recipe serves 4, but honestly, I won’t judge if you want to keep it all to yourself – it’s that good! The leftovers make an amazing lunch for work, and your coworkers will totally be jealous.
Y’all, I can’t even tell you how many times I’ve made this when I’m trying to impress someone or just treat myself to something special. It’s healthy but doesn’t taste like you’re eating rabbit food (you know what I mean!).
