Steps
Read instructions and get ready to cook
Cook the grain
Rinse rice or quinoa thoroughly. Cook according to package instructions. For brown rice, typically combine with 2 cups water, bring to boil, then simmer covered for 30 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes, then fluff with fork.
Prepare the sweet potatoes
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash and cut sweet potato into 1-inch cubes. Toss with oil, salt, and spices (like cumin, paprika, or cinnamon). Spread on baking sheet.
Prepare the chickpeas
Drain and rinse chickpeas. Pat dry with paper towels. Toss with oil, salt, and spices. Spread on baking sheet (can share with sweet potatoes if space allows).
Roast sweet potatoes and chickpeas
Place baking sheet in oven. Roast for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through. Sweet potatoes should be tender and chickpeas crispy.
Steam the broccoli
Cut broccoli into florets. Steam for 4-5 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp. Alternatively, roast with sweet potatoes for the last 10 minutes of cooking time.
Make tahini sauce
Squeeze juice from lemon. Whisk tahini with lemon juice, salt, and water until smooth. Add more water if needed to reach desired consistency.
Prepare the avocado
Cut avocado in half and remove pit. Slice or dice the flesh.
Assemble the bowls
Divide cooked grain between two bowls. Arrange sweet potatoes, chickpeas, broccoli, and avocado on top. Drizzle with tahini sauce.
Serve
Serve immediately while components are still warm. Additional sauce can be served on the side.
