This Maple Balsamic Harvest Bowl is a healthy yet delicious vegan meal for this time of year. Trade your summer salads for this savory-sweet bowl that harnesses the flavors of fall with roasted veggies and crisp apples.
Slice the brussels sprouts and cube the sweet potato. Add them to a large baking tray, then coat with oil, maple syrup, and balsamic vinegar, as well as the spices. Toss to thoroughly coat the veggies. Place tray in the oven and bake at 400°F for 30 mins.
While the veggies are roasting, cook the quinoa by boiling 1 cup of quinoa to 2 cups of water or veggie broth. Prepare the apple by cutting it into thin slices with either a knife or with a 3.5mm julienne slicer.
When the veggies are done roasting, plate up the quinoa, roasted brussels sprouts and sweet potatoes, then top off with the sliced apples and almonds.
Notes
Make slicing easier by using a mandoline slicer to get thin, even slices every time. Get the one I use here.
