Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray or rub with olive oil.
  • Place the potatoes and onion on the baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle over the spices, and toss to combine. Bake in the hot oven for 25 to 30 minutes.
  • While the potatoes are cooking, prepare the quinoa. In a medium pot, bring the quinoa and water/vegetable broth to a boil, then cover and turn the heat to low. Simmer gently for 15 to 20 minutes or until all the water has evaporated.
  • Meanwhile, cook the kale. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. When the olive oil is fragrant, add the garlic, kale, and brussels sprouts to the skillet and sauté for 5 to 7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and remove from heat.
  • To assemble the dish, divide the quinoa, sweet potatoes, and kale mixture evenly into 6 bowls (or meal prep containers). Top with avocado, a drizzle of tahini, and sprinkle over the sesame seeds.
