Method
 

Roast the Sweet Potatoes
  1. Preheat oven to 400°F. On a parchment-lined baking tray, spread diced sweet potatoes. Drizzle with avocado oil, sprinkle with kosher salt, garlic powder, paprika, and black pepper. Toss to coat and spread evenly. Roast for 35-45 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and tender.
Cook the Quinoa
  1. Cook quinoa according to package instructions. Rinse beforehand to remove bitterness. Once cooked, fluff with a fork and set aside.
Assemble the Grain Bowls
  1. Divide spring mix evenly between bowls. Top with roasted sweet potatoes, chickpeas, quinoa, apples, vegan feta, dried cranberries, and pistachios. Drizzle balsamic vinaigrette over top and serve immediately.
