Meal Prep Beet Quinoa Breakfast Bowls Recipes

HOW TO MAKE QUINOA BOWLS

Steps:

• Add your quinoa and water to a small saucepan. Bring the water to a boil, then reduce to simmer, cover and allow the quinoa to cook for 15 minutes.
• Remove the pan from the heat, remove the lid and fluff the quinoa with a fork. Allow to cool completely before storing for later!
• To assemble your bowls, follow this "loose" formula. Add 1 cup of cooked quinoa into each bowl. Top with your desired veggies of choice, protein, and healthy fat (avocado, nuts, seeds, etc.), and then finish with a dressing!

MEAL PREP BEET QUINOA BREAKFAST BOWLS

Steps:

• Heat up quinoa if you prefer. Set aside.
• Heat a medium-sized skillet over medium heat add avocado oil and let it get hot (about 30 seconds). Add kale and sauté for 3-4 minutes, adding in garlic powder and lemon juice halfway through, until cooked through and wilted down.
• While kale cooks, poach the egg - crack an egg into a small bowl and set aside. Fill a medium sized sauce pan with a few inches of water and let it come to a simmer. Add a splash of apple cider vinegar to the water once it simmers. Using a spoon, swirl the water to create a whirlpool and slowly drop the egg into the water. Let it cook for 3 minutes and remove with a slotted spoon.
• Assemble the bowl - add quinoa, cooked kale, sliced beets, poached egg, avocado, and hot sauce.

MEAL PREP FARRO AND QUINOA VEGGIE BOWLS

Steps:

• In a 6-quart saucepan, combine the water, farro, quinoa, bay leaf, the grated zest of 1 lemon and a large pinch of salt. Stir and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Stir again then cover, reduce the heat to a simmer and cook over medium-low heat for 10 minutes. Bump the heat up to medium and cook, uncovered, until all of the liquid has absorbed and the grains are al dente, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Cover, remove from the heat and let stand for 5 minutes more. Remove and discard the bay leaf and fluff the grains with a fork.
• While the grains cook, prep your veggies, herbs and cut the 2 lemons into 10 wedges. If meal prepping for the week, only cut the amount of avocado you need right away. Refrigerate everything (except the nuts and seeds) in separate airtight containers for up to 3 to 4 days until needed.
• To assemble 1 bowl: Scoop 1/2 cup of the cooked grains into a shallow bowl then top with a few thin avocado slices, some of the cucumber and a handful each of the baby lettuce and carrots. Add a sprinkle of the cashews and sunflower seeds followed by a scoop of hummus. Finish with a sprinkle of herbs, a squeeze of 1 lemon wedge and drizzle of olive oil. Feel free to top the bowl with any of the suggested add-ins or switch-ups.
• After refrigerating the grains, let them come to room temperature before serving. Alternatively, warm them in the microwave, or in a skillet with a little water over low heat until the liquid evaporates.
