Ingredients
  

  • 1 large sweet potato peeled and cubed
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil divided
  • 3 teaspoons turmeric divided
  • 1 cup quinoa uncooked
  • 2 eggs if you don’t like slightly runny eggs, opt for 2 sliced hard-boiled eggs instead
  • 2 cups mixed greens or spinach torn
  • 8 ounces smoked salmon
  • 2 radishes thinly sliced
  • ½ avocado peel and pit removed, sliced lengthwise
  • 1 tablespoon hemp seeds
  • 8 ounces plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper or harissa
  • Salt and pepper as desired

Method
 

Sweet Potatoes
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. On a baking sheet, toss the cubed sweet potato with 1 teaspoon of olive oil, 1 teaspoon of turmeric, salt, and pepper.
  3. Roast for 20-25 minutes, or until tender and slightly caramelized, flipping halfway through.
Quinoa
  1. Rinse 1 cup of quinoa thoroughly under cold water.
  2. In a saucepan, combine the rinsed quinoa with 2 cups of water or vegetable broth.
  3. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes, or until the water is absorbed.
  4. Let stand, covered, for 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork.
Eggs
  1. If opting for fresh eggs, gently poach or fry two eggs to your desired doneness. Alternatively, slice two hard-boiled eggs.
Yogurt Sauce
  1. In a small bowl, combine the plain Greek yogurt, remaining 2 teaspoons olive oil, remaining 2 teaspoons turmeric, cayenne pepper or harissa, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
  2. Stir well until smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
Assembling Your Bowl
  1. Start with a base of mixed greens or spinach in your bowl.
  2. Add a generous portion of cooked quinoa.
  3. Arrange the roasted sweet potato cubes and sliced avocado.
  4. Place the smoked salmon and sliced radishes.
  5. Top with your perfectly cooked eggs (runny or hard-boiled).
