This nourishing bowl is a harmonious blend of sweet and savory flavors, bringing together vibrant vegetables, hearty grains, and a burst of wholesome goodness. Let’s embark on this culinary journey together and discover the magic of our Harvest Bowl.

Ingredients

– 1 large sweet potato, cubed

– 1 cup cooked brown rice

– 2 cups spinach and kale mix (fresh and vibrant)

– 1 cup Brussels sprouts, halved

– 1 ripe avocado (or goat cheese if not dairy-free)

– 1/4 cup dried cranberries

– 1/4 cup pecans, toasted

– 2 air-fried chicken thighs (or tofu for a vegetarian option)

Maple Dijon Dressing 

Instructions

Roast the Sweet Potato and Brussels Sprouts

Begin by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C). On a baking sheet, arrange the cubed sweet potatoes and halved Brussels sprouts. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and roast for about 25-30 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly caramelized.

Assemble the Bowl

Once your sweet potatoes and Brussels sprouts are done, it’s time to assemble your Harvest Bowl. Here’s how:

  • Divide the cooked brown rice between two bowls, forming a hearty base.

  • Top the rice with a generous handful of fresh spinach and kale mix, creating a bed of vibrant greens.

  • Add the roasted sweet potatoes and Brussels sprouts for a warm, earthy contrast.

  • Slice the ripe avocado (or crumble goat cheese if you prefer) and arrange it artistically atop the greens.

  • Sprinkle dried cranberries and toasted pecans for a delightful crunch and a burst of sweetness.

  • Place the air-fried chicken thighs on the side or on top for a satisfying protein boost.

Drizzle with Maple Dijon Dressing

Finally, generously drizzle your Harvest Bowl with the luscious Maple Dijon Dressing. This dressing will tie all the flavors together, infusing your creation with a harmonious blend of sweet, savory, and tangy notes.
