Steps

Read instructions and get ready to cook

1
Preheat the Oven

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).

2
Prepare the Quinoa

Rinse quinoa under cold water. In a small pot, combine quinoa with 1 cup of water and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes until water is absorbed.

3
Prepare the Sweet Potato

Wash sweet potato and cut into 1-inch cubes. No need to peel.

4
Prepare the Brussels Sprouts

Wash Brussels sprouts, trim the ends, and cut in half.

5
Season the Vegetables

Place sweet potato cubes and Brussels sprouts on a baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat.

6
Roast the Vegetables

Roast vegetables in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through, until sweet potatoes are tender and Brussels sprouts are crispy on the edges.

7
Prepare the Tofu

Drain and press tofu to remove excess water. Cut into 1-inch cubes.

8
Season the Tofu

In a bowl, toss tofu cubes with soy sauce.

9
Cook the Tofu

Heat remaining tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Add tofu cubes and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until golden and crispy.

10
Make Tahini Sauce

In a small bowl, whisk together tahini, juice from half a lemon, minced garlic, maple syrup, and 2-3 tablespoons of water until smooth. Season with remaining salt and pepper.

11
Prepare the Avocado

Cut avocado in half, remove pit, and slice each half.

12
Fluff the Quinoa

Once quinoa is cooked, fluff with a fork and let cool slightly.

13
Assemble the Bowls

Divide quinoa between two bowls. Arrange roasted sweet potatoes, Brussels sprouts, tofu, and avocado slices on top of the quinoa.

14
Add Sauce

Drizzle tahini sauce over the assembled bowls.

15
