Packed with protein, fiber, and hearty veggies, this is a super satisfying meal option for this winter (or spring, or summer… or anytime!). Plus, it is SO easy to make. All the ingredients can be prepped ahead of time and reheated for a quick and healthy meal later in the week. (I have included prep time for the roasted veggies and quinoa in the recipe, but if you make your ingredients ahead of time, you can have a full meal ready to eat in about 5 minutes.)
Start with a base of fluffy quinoa, add your favorite black beans (I like to make my own, but you could also use canned beans for ease), my favorite roasted veggies, and any additions you want! I personally like to add some crunchy salad to the bowl, and drizzle a savory dressing over the top of everything. You could also add cilantro, salsa, and your favorite guac!
It took me a while, but I’ve officially jumped on the “bowl bandwagon.” They are just so versatile, satisfying, and packed with goodness. I hope you enjoy this one as much as I have been! If you try it, be sure to rate this recipe and leave a comment below! We love hearing from you.
