Description

A flavorful and nutritious bowl featuring roasted garlic hummus, fresh veggies, and quinoa.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup canned chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • 2 tablespoons tahini
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for drizzling
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 cup cooked quinoa
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 cucumber, diced
  • 1 bell pepper (any color), diced
  • 1 cup baby spinach or mixed greens
  • ¼ cup feta cheese, crumbled (optional)
  • Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Place the garlic cloves (with skins on) on a piece of aluminum foil, drizzle with olive oil, and wrap them up.
  3. Roast in the oven for about 20-25 minutes or until the garlic is soft and fragrant. Once done, allow to cool slightly before peeling.
  4. In a food processor, combine the roasted garlic (squeezed out of the skins), chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper.
  5. Blend until smooth, adjusting the texture with water if needed (add one tablespoon at a time until desired consistency is reached). Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
  6. In four serving bowls, divide the cooked quinoa as a base.
  7. Arrange the halved cherry tomatoes, diced cucumber, diced bell pepper, and baby spinach or mixed greens evenly over the quinoa.
  8. Spoon generous amounts of the roasted garlic hummus over the veggies and quinoa.
  9. Drizzle with additional olive oil and sprinkle feta cheese (if using) and fresh parsley on top.
  10. Serve immediately and enjoy your colorful and nutritious Roasted Garlic Hummus Veggie Bowl!
