Ingredients

Scale

1 cup cooked quinoa

½ cup cooked green lentils

1 grilled chicken breast, sliced

1 cup broccoli florets

½ red bell pepper, sliced

1 tbsp olive oil

½ tsp garlic powder

¼ tsp black pepper

Salt to taste

1 tbsp tahini

1 tbsp lemon juice

1 tbsp water

1 tsp Dijon mustard


Instructions

Preheat oven to 400°F and line a tray with parchment.

Toss broccoli and bell pepper in olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Roast for 20 minutes.

Cook quinoa and lentils according to package directions if not already prepared.

Grill or pan-sear chicken breast until cooked through, about 6 minutes per side.

In a small bowl, whisk tahini, lemon juice, Dijon, and water to create a creamy sauce.

Assemble bowls with quinoa, lentils, chicken, and roasted vegetables.

Drizzle with tahini dressing just before serving.

Notes

Swap chicken with tofu for a plant-based version.

This meal holds well for 3–4 days in airtight containers.

Add chopped parsley or chili flakes for extra flavor.
