Thai Peanut Sweet Potato Broccoli Buddha Bowl

Serving Size: 3-4
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Bake Time: 15-20 minutes

INGREDIENTS:

Veggies—

• 2 sweet potatoes, peeled chopped into 1-inch cubes
• 1 head broccoli, cut into large bite-size pieces
• 2 carrots, peeled and chopped into 2-inch long x 1/2-inch thick strips
• 6-8 large brussels sprouts, quartered (or 10 small, halved)

Seasoning for Veggies—

• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon ginger
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
• 1/2 teaspoon paprika
• 1/2 teaspoon rosemary
• 1/2 teaspoon basil
• dash cayenne pepper

Thai Peanut Sauce—

• 1/3 cup natural peanut butter (the kind you have to stir)
• 4-6 tablespoons water
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 1 tablespoon lime juice
• 1/4 teaspoon basil
• 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes

Serve with—

• Quinoa, rice, or cauliflower rice (I like to get frozen cauliflower rice from Aldi!)
• Cilantro (optional)
• Dry roasted peanuts, chopped (optional)

DIRECTIONS:

1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees and line a baking sheet with foil.
2. Add all chopped vegetables to a large bowl. Add olive oil and seasonings. Mix together to evenly coat veggies in oil/seasoning mixture. Spread evenly into a single layer on the baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes or until veggies are fork tender.
3. Meanwhile, whisk together Thai peanut sauce mixture in a medium bowl. It’s going to seem like you added too much water at first, but you didn’t— just keep whisking with a fork! Cook quinoa/rice according to package instructions.
4. When veggies are finished baking, assemble the bowls. Add quinoa/rice and veggies to each bowl and drizzle generously with Thai Peanut Sauce. Top with cilantro and chopped peanuts if desired.
