Spiced Carrot & Chickpea Buddha Bowl

A vibrant and flavorful buddha bowl packed with roasted vegetables, spiced chickpeas, creamy avocado dressing, and a sprinkle of toasted almonds.

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups diced carrots
  • 1 can (15oz) chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp cumin powder
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • 1/4 tsp turmeric
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 avocado, mashed
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp water
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
  • 1/4 cup toasted almonds, sliced

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss carrots and chickpeas with olive oil, cumin, paprika, turmeric, salt, and pepper on a baking sheet.
  2. Roast for 20-25 minutes, or until carrots are tender and chickpeas are crispy.
  3. While vegetables roast, prepare the avocado dressing: combine mashed avocado, lemon juice, water, and cilantro in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Assemble the buddha bowls by layering cooked quinoa (or your preferred grain), roasted vegetables, and spiced chickpeas. Drizzle generously with avocado dressing and top with toasted almonds.
