A vibrant power bowl that combines nutty quinoa, crispy roasted chickpeas, perfectly poached eggs, and tender edamame over a bed of fresh spinach, all brought together with a tangy tahini-lemon dressing. This bowl is a balanced and satisfying meal bursting with textures and flavors.
INGREDIENTS
1/4 cup dry quinoa
1/2 cup roasted chickpeas
2 large eggs
1/4 cup shelled edamame
1 cup baby spinach
1 tbsp tahini-lemon dressing
PREPARATION
Rinse 1/4 cup of dry quinoa under cold water. Cook it in a small pot with water (use a 1:2 quinoa-to-water ratio) until tender, about 15 minutes. Fluff with a fork and set aside.
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Drain and rinse a can of chickpeas (or use pre-soaked chickpeas), pat dry, toss with olive oil, salt, pepper, and your favorite spices (such as paprika and cumin), and roast on a baking sheet for 20-25 minutes until crispy.
In a small pot, bring water to a gentle simmer and poach 2 large eggs until the whites are set and yolks remain runny, about 3-4 minutes. Alternatively, you can cook them to your desired consistency.
Warm 1/4 cup shelled edamame (if not using pre-cooked, steam them for a few minutes until tender).
To assemble the bowl, start with a bed of 1 cup fresh baby spinach in a serving bowl. Add the cooked quinoa, roasted chickpeas, and edamame. Carefully place the poached eggs on top.
Drizzle 1 tablespoon of tahini mixed with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice over the bowl. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper, and serve immediately.
