SPICY SHRIMP & QUINOA BOWLS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Add low sodium vegetable broth and quinoa to a saucepan over medium high heat and bring to a boil. Once boiling, lower heat to a simmer, cover and cook for 12 minutes (or until the majority of the liquid is absorbed and quinoa is light and fluffy). Once done, remove from heat and set aside.
• While quinoa cooks, place the sweet potatoes on a baking sheet lined with foil. Drizzle sweet potatoes with olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Toss to coat then place in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes.
• While quinoa and sweet potatoes cook, place a saucepan over medium heat and add 1 teaspoon of olive oil. Add 1/2 the diced medium onion and minced garlic cloves to the pan and allow to cook until fragrant and just tender (about 3-4 minutes). Add black beans, cumin, cilantro, and pinch of salt stirring to combine. Lower heat to medium low and allow to cook 15-20 minutes (see note)
• Place a non-stick sauté pan over medium heat. Once the pan is hot, add a teaspoon of olive oil then add shrimp and the can of chipotle peppers in adobo sauce. Cook about 4-5 minutes each side or until shrimp are pink and opaque.
• In a large bowl, layer half the cooked quinoa, 1/3 cup black beans, 6 shrimp, half the roasted sweet potatoes and half the avocado. Top with cotija cheese, chopped cilantro, a dollop of plain yogurt and a squeeze of fresh lime juice. Repeat in a second bowl and serve immediately.

SPICY QUINOA BOWL WITH BRUSSELS SPROUTS AND SWEET POTATOES

Steps:

• Put the quinoa in a bowl, cover with water, then drain. Repeat twice and drain well. (This will help remove any bitterness.) Transfer the quinoa to a medium saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the quinoa is dry, about 8 minutes. Add 1 1/2 cups of the vegetable broth, 3/4 cup water and 1/2 teaspoon salt and stir together. Bring to a simmer, then cover the pan, leaving the lid slightly ajar to let steam escape; reduce the heat to medium low and cook until the quinoa is tender and the liquid is absorbed, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and red onion and cook, stirring often, until slightly softened, about 4 minutes. Add the chile powder, coriander and cumin and cook, stirring, until the spices darken, about 1 minute. Add the remaining 1 1/2 cups vegetable broth, the Brussels sprouts, jalapeno, sweet potatoes and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Increase the heat to medium high and bring to a simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the Brussels sprouts and sweet potatoes are tender and the liquid is almost absorbed, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, bring a small saucepan of water to a boil and prepare a bowl of ice water. Gently add the eggs to the pot with a spoon. Simmer for 6 minutes, then transfer the eggs to the ice water. Let sit until cool enough to handle, about 3 minutes. Peel and halve the eggs and set aside.
• Add the Brussels sprout mixture, cilantro and lime juice to the quinoa and toss; season with salt. Divide among 4 bowls and top each with some cashews and half an egg.
