MOROCCAN POWER BOWL

This Moroccan-inspired bowl is so delicious, with warm, aromatic spices and just enough harissa—a North African chili paste—to give it a little kick.

1 cup quinoa

1/4 cup raisins

FOR THE HARISSA SAUCE

1 tbsp. harissa paste

2 tbsp. tahini

2 tbsp. water

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Add the chickpeas, cauliflower, carrots, and yellow pepper.
  2. Drizzle with 1 tbsp. olive oil and sprinkle with turmeric, paprika, and cumin. Toss to coat and bake for 20-25 minutes, until cauliflower is golden brown and carrots are soft, set aside.
  3. For the quinoa, heat 2 tbsp. olive oil in a medium saucepan. Add garlic, cumin, ginger, and cinnamon.
  4. Sauté over medium heat until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in the quinoa and cook until lightly toasted.
  5. Cover with 2 cups of water and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer for 15-17 minutes, until the liquid is absorbed.
  6. In a small bowl, blend the harissa sauce ingredients until smooth.
  7. Fluff quinoa with a fork and stir in raisins.
  8. Divide ROMAINE CALM between two bowls. Top with quinoa, roasted vegetables, harissa sauce, and sliced almonds. Enjoy!
