RECIPE OVERVIEW
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 35 minutes
Servings: 2 bowls
Difficulty: Easy
WHAT YOU'LL NEED
For the Bowl:
- 1 cup quinoa (or your favorite grain)
- 2 cups mixed greens (arugula, lettuce, spinach)
- 1 large chicken breast (or tofu for vegan option)
- 1 large sweet potato, cubed
- ½ avocado, sliced
- ½ cup pomegranate seeds
- Fresh cilantro for garnish
- 1 lime, cut into wedges
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tbsp olive oil
For the Faida Drizzle:
- 3-4 tbsp Faida Original Hot Sauce
LET'S MAKE IT
Step 1: Cook Your Grain
Cook quinoa according to package directions. Fluff with a fork and set aside. Pro tip: cook extra for meal prep!
Step 2: Roast the Sweet Potatoes
Toss cubed sweet potatoes with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast at 400°F (200°C) for 20-25 minutes until crispy and golden. Flip halfway through for even cooking.
Step 3: Grill the Protein
Season chicken breast (or tofu) with salt, pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil. Grill or pan-sear for 6-7 minutes per side until cooked through. Let rest, then slice.
Step 4: Build Your Bowl
Layer greens at the bottom. Add quinoa, roasted sweet potatoes, sliced chicken, avocado, and pomegranate seeds. Garnish with fresh cilantro and lime wedges.
Step 5: Drizzle & Enjoy
Generously drizzle your Faida sauce over everything. Squeeze fresh lime juice on top.
