Ingredients

  • Quinoa - 1 cup
  • Water - 2 cups
  • Olive oil - 1 tablespoon
  • Red bell pepper - 1 medium, diced
  • Spinach - 2 cups, fresh
  • Cherry tomatoes - 1 cup, halved
  • Avocado - 1 medium, diced
  • Nutritional yeast - 2 tablespoons
  • Garlic powder - 1 teaspoon
  • Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
  • Black pepper - 1/4 teaspoon
  • Lemon juice - 1 tablespoon

Steps

  1. Rinse the quinoa under cold water, then combine it with 2 cups of water in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes or until water is absorbed and quinoa is fluffy.
  2. While the quinoa is cooking, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced red bell pepper and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened.
  3. Add the fresh spinach and cherry tomatoes to the skillet, cooking for another 2-3 minutes until the spinach wilts and tomatoes soften slightly.
  4. In a small bowl, combine the diced avocado, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Mash together until creamy and well mixed.
  5. Once the quinoa is cooked, fluff it with a fork and divide it into two bowls. Top each bowl with the sautéed vegetables and a generous dollop of the avocado dressing.
  6. Serve immediately and enjoy your flavorful Vegan Breakfast Bowl!
