Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 200°C (392°F).

  2. 2

    Spread the diced sweet potato on a baking tray, drizzle with half of the olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and roast for 25–30 minutes until soft and lightly golden.

  3. 3

    Pat the cooked chickpeas dry and roast them with garlic, the remaining olive oil, salt and pepper for 15–20 minutes until slightly crispy.

  4. 4

    Toast the sesame seeds in a dry pan until lightly golden.

  5. 5

    Assemble the bowl with spinach, roasted sweet potato, chickpeas and avocado.

  6. 6

    Add the hemp seeds for extra protein.

  7. 7

    Finish with sesame seeds and a squeeze of lemon juice.

The perfect balance of carbs and fats

Sweet potatoes are a fantastic source of beta-carotene and complex carbohydrates that fuel your body slowly. Avocado provides heart-healthy monounsaturated fats. This bowl is an ideal post-workout meal to replenish your glycogen stores.

Make it your own

Add a dollop of hummus or roasted chickpeas for extra texture and protein. The sesame dressing also tastes great over a simple salad the next day.
