Ingredients

• 2 medium sweet potatoes
• 3 cups broccoli florets
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoons smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoons sea salt
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
• 1 medium zucchini
• 4 cups mixed greens
• 1 cup shredded purple cabbage
• 1 cup grape tomatoes
• 1 medium avocado
• 0.25 cups tahini
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons water
• 1 small garlic clove
• 0.25 teaspoons red pepper flakes

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Peel and dice the sweet potatoes into 1-inch cubes. Slice the zucchini into half-moons about 1/2 inch thick.

Step 3

Add the sweet potatoes and broccoli florets to the baking sheet. Drizzle 2 tablespoons of olive oil over them, then sprinkle with garlic powder, smoked paprika, 1/2 teaspoon of sea salt, and black pepper. Toss to coat evenly.

Step 4

On one side of the baking sheet, place the zucchini slices. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of sea salt.

Step 5

Roast the vegetables in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the sweet potatoes are tender and the broccoli is slightly crispy.

Step 6

While the vegetables roast, prepare the tahini dressing. In a small bowl, whisk together tahini, lemon juice, water, minced garlic clove, and red pepper flakes until smooth. Add an extra tablespoon of water if needed to reach your desired consistency.

Step 7

Slice the grape tomatoes in half and dice the avocado.

Step 8

To assemble the Buddha bowls, divide the mixed greens evenly among four bowls. Top each with roasted sweet potatoes, broccoli, zucchini, shredded purple cabbage, grape tomatoes, and avocado slices.

Step 9

Drizzle the tahini dressing generously over each bowl and serve immediately.
