INGREDIENTS
1 cup roasted chickpeas
1/2 cup cooked quinoa
1/2 cup steamed shelled edamame
1 tbsp hemp seeds
1/2 cup halved cherry tomatoes
1 cup baby spinach
1/2 cup sliced cucumber
2 tbsp thinly sliced red onion
2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp olive oil
Spices (paprika, cumin, garlic powder, salt & pepper) to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Rinse and drain a can of chickpeas, then pat them dry with a paper towel.
Toss the chickpeas with a drizzle of olive oil and your chosen spices (paprika, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper) until evenly coated.
Spread the chickpeas on a baking sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through, until they are crispy.
Meanwhile, cook quinoa according to package instructions. Once cooked, fluff with a fork.
Steam shelled edamame for about 5 minutes until tender.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, roasted chickpeas, steamed edamame, halved cherry tomatoes, baby spinach, sliced cucumber, red onion, and chopped parsley.
In a small bowl, whisk together lemon juice, a teaspoon of olive oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper for the dressing.
Drizzle the dressing over the bowl and gently toss to combine.
Finish by sprinkling hemp seeds on top. Serve immediately and enjoy your power bowl!
