Ingredients

• Chickpeas: 1 cup cooked (for protein and fiber)
• Quinoa: 1 cup cooked (complex carbs and complete protein)
• Spinach: 2 cups fresh (rich in iron and vitamins)
• Sweet potato: 1 medium, cubed (good carbs and beta-carotene)
• Avocado: 1 small (healthy fats)
• Olive oil: 1 tablespoon (heart-healthy fat)
• Garlic: 2 cloves, minced (flavor and antioxidants)
• Lemon juice: 1 tablespoon (brightens flavor)
• Salt and pepper: to taste
• Ground turmeric: 1/2 teaspoon (anti-inflammatory benefits)
• Ground cumin: 1/2 teaspoon (adds warmth)
• Red pepper flakes: optional, for a kick
• Fresh cilantro or parsley: 2 tablespoons, chopped (for garnish)

Equipment

• Medium saucepan (for cooking quinoa)
• Large skillet or sauté pan
• Cutting board and sharp knife
• Mixing bowls
• Measuring cups and spoons
• Spatula or wooden spoon
• Colander (for rinsing chickpeas and quinoa)

Instructions

1. Cook the quinoa: Rinse 1/2 cup dry quinoa under cold water. Add to a saucepan with 1 cup water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes or until water is absorbed. Fluff with a fork and set aside.
2. Prepare the sweet potato: Peel and cube the sweet potato into bite-sized pieces. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sweet potato cubes and sauté, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes or until tender and slightly browned.
3. Add spices and aromatics: To the skillet, add minced garlic, turmeric, cumin, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes if using. Stir well to coat the sweet potatoes and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
4. Add chickpeas and spinach: Drain and rinse 1 cup cooked chickpeas. Add them to the skillet along with the fresh spinach. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the spinach wilts and everything is heated through.
5. Combine quinoa and lemon juice: Add the cooked quinoa to the skillet and stir everything together. Remove from heat and squeeze 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice over the mixture.
6. Serve with avocado: Slice the avocado and garnish the dish with it along with chopped cilantro or parsley. Enjoy warm, or pack it for a nutritious meal on the go.

Tips & Variations

Tip: You can roast the sweet potatoes in the oven at 400°F for 20-25 minutes if you prefer a crispier texture and less hands-on cooking.

For extra protein, add a serving of tempeh or tofu, marinated and pan-fried. You can also swap quinoa for brown rice or farro for variety.

If you like spicy food, increase the red pepper flakes or add a splash of hot sauce when serving.
