INGREDIENTS
1 cup Cooked Lentils (198g)
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa (93g)
1 medium Carrot (61g)
1 small Beet (82g)
1 tablespoon Tahini (15g)
1/2 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt (120g)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Peel the carrot and beet, then cut them into uniform bite-sized pieces.
Toss the chopped carrot and beet with a drizzle of olive oil (optional, can be omitted if oil-free desired) and a pinch of salt and pepper. Spread them in a single layer on a baking sheet.
Roast the vegetables in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until tender and slightly caramelized, stirring halfway through.
While the vegetables roast, prepare the base by combining 1 cup of cooked lentils and 1/2 cup of cooked quinoa in a bowl.
In a small bowl, mix the tahini with a squeeze of lemon juice and a small splash of water to achieve a creamy consistency. Season with a pinch of salt.
Once the roasted vegetables are done, fold them into the lentil and quinoa mixture.
Top the bowl with 1/2 cup nonfat Greek yogurt and drizzle the tahini dressing over the top.
Gently toss to combine all flavors, and enjoy this nutritious, protein-packed meal.
