Serves: 4
Ingredients
Bowls
1 C quinoa
2 C vegetable broth
4-5 C chopped kale
1 can garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed
2 C cherry tomatoes, halved
1 avocado, peeled, pitted and diced
pepitas
Orange-Tahini Sauce
¾ C tahini
½ C orange juice
1 Tbs sesame oil
2 Tbs white wine vinegar
1 Tbs tamari
1 Tbs agave
salt and pepper, to taste
Directions
In a medium saucepan, combine the broth and quinoa. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low and cover. Cook until all the liquid has been absorbed.
Pile the kale on top and replace the lid. Let the kale steam for about 10 minutes, then stir it into the quinoa.
To make the sauce, combine everything in a food processor and blend until smooth. I then transferred it to a squeeze bottle.
Assemble the bowls by placing a scoop or two of the quinoa mix in a bowl and top with garbanzo beans, avocado, cherry tomatoes, pepitas, and sauce. It's that easy. Enjoy!
