Chickpea Broccoli Buddha Bowl Recipes

CHICKPEA BUDDHA BOWL

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Place vegetable broth and quinoa in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Simmer until quinoa is tender, about 15 minutes.
• Place Brussels sprouts, carrots, parsnips, and red onion on a baking sheet; drizzle with 1 teaspoon olive oil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until softened, about 10 minutes.
• Mix chickpeas with turmeric in a bowl. Heat remaining 1 teaspoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir chickpeas until browned, about 8 minutes.
• Mix tahini, lemon juice, and maple syrup in a bowl until well combined. Add hot water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until dressing is thin and smooth.
• Divide quinoa, roasted vegetables, chickpeas, and mashed avocado between 2 serving bowls. Drizzle 1 tablespoon dressing over each bowl.

BUDDHA BOWL WITH ROASTED BROCCOLI AND CHICKPEAS

Steps:

• To cook quinoa you need one part quinoa to two parts of water. After you have rinsed the quinoa, add it to the pan with water and a pinch of salt. Bring it to the boil and once boiling turn the heat down so the water is just simmering. Cook uncovered for about 10-15 minutes. The time will vary depending on the size of your quinoa. Once all water has evaporated, take the saucepan from the heat, cover the pan with the lid, and leave the quinoa for 5 minutes. After 5 minutes, open the lid and fluff the quinoa with a fork. Once it has cooled down, it is ready to be added to the buddha bowl.
• While the quinoa is cooking, put the broccoli on a roasting tray and sprinkle 2 tbsp of extra virgin olive oil and some salt over the florets. Give it a good toss and roast for about 15 minutes on 220'C.
• Put the chickpeas on another tray, add 2 tbsp of olive oil, a pinch of salt and 1 teaspoon of smoked paprika. Mix well to combine. Roast for around 15 minutes on 220'C.
• I found that it works well to put two trays in the oven at the same time. Just make sure to put the broccoli on top of the chickpeas.
• Take the broccoli and chickpeas out of the oven. Give the chickpeas a good stir and put them back in the oven for another 3 to 5 minutes on the grill/bake setting to crispen them up.

CHICKPEA BROCCOLI BUDDHA BOWL

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400F. Line a baking sheet with a Silipat or parchment paper. Place chickpeas, broccoli, and carrots on baking sheet. Season with olive oil and a good pinch of salt and pepper, stirring to combine. Roast for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through.
• Meanwhile, cook your grains. I used frozen brown rice, which made it super easy!
• Place peanut butter in a medium bowl and microwave for about 20 seconds (optional, but this will make it easier to stir). Add almond milk, soy sauce, maple syrup, ginger, and red pepper flakes and whisk until smooth.
• Assemble bowls by placing grains at the bottom topped with veggie mixture and plenty of peanut sauce.

MCCORMICK® CHICKPEA BUDDHA BOWL RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Make the spiced chickpeas: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
• In a large bowl, combine the chickpeas, olive oil, McCormick® Himalayan Pink Salt with Black Pepper and Garlic, paprika, cumin and coriander, and toss to coat.
• Spread the chickpeas on a nonstick baking sheet and bake until crispy, about 20 minutes.
• Make the garlic herb rice: Add the rice, salt, Gourmet Garden™ Garlic Paste, Gourmet Garden™ Cilantro, and Gourmet Garden™ Parsley to a medium pot. Add water and cook the rice according to the package instructions.
• Make the stewed greens: In a large, high-walled skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the shallots and cook for about 10 minutes, until soft and translucent. The shallots should start to develop some color, but shouldn't brown. Add the Gourmet Garden™ Garlic Paste, and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the greens, vegetable stock and McCormick® Himalayan Pink Salt with Black Pepper and Garlic, and gently stir to combine. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the greens are wilted and soft, 5-7 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat, leaving the lid on to keep warm.
• Make the garlic black pepper yogurt: In a medium bowl, whisk together the yogurt, Gourmet Garden™ Garlic Paste, salt, and pepper. Add a splash of water at a time and whisk to incorporate until the yogurt sauce is thin enough to drizzle. Season with more salt and pepper to taste.
• Assemble the buddha bowls: Divide the rice evenly between 4 bowls. Top with the stewed greens, chickpeas, feta cheese, radish and pickled red onions. Drizzle the yogurt sauce over each bowl, then garnish with Gourmet Garden™ Parsley and Gourmet Garden™ Cilantro. Serve immediately.
• Enjoy!
