Ingredients
  

1 cup quinoa (uncooked)

2 cups vegetable broth

1 cup chickpeas (canned, rinsed and drained)

1 cup cherry tomatoes (halved)

1 red bell pepper (diced)

1 cup broccoli florets

1 medium avocado (sliced)

1 cup mixed greens (spinach, arugula, or kale)

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

Juice of 1 lemon

¼ cup feta cheese (optional, crumbled)

Fresh herbs (such as parsley or cilantro) for garnish

Instructions
 

Cook the Quinoa: Rinse the quinoa under cold water. In a medium saucepan, combine quinoa and vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes or until quinoa is fluffy and all the liquid is absorbed. Remove from heat and let it sit covered for 5 minutes before fluffing with a fork.

    Prepare the Veggies: While the quinoa is cooking, preheat a skillet over medium heat. Add olive oil, then toss in the broccoli florets, cherry tomatoes, and diced red bell pepper. Sprinkle with garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Sauté for about 5–7 minutes until the broccoli is tender and the tomatoes start to blister.

      Combine Chickpeas and Greens: In a large bowl, mix together the chickpeas and mixed greens. Drizzle with lemon juice and a dash of salt. Toss until the greens are evenly coated.

        Assemble the Bowl: In serving bowls, layer the fluffy quinoa at the bottom. Arrange the sautéed veggies on top, followed by the chickpea and greens mix. Add the sliced avocado beautifully on top.

          Garnish and Serve: Crumble feta cheese over the bowls if using, and sprinkle with fresh herbs. Drizzle with extra olive oil and lemon juice as desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
