  • 400 g Brussels sprouts
  • 1 1/2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tsp ground cumin
  • 2 tsp garlic powder
  • Salt, to taste

  • Instructions

    1. Preheat your oven to 400F (200C).
    2. Rinse the quinoa thoroughly under cold water.
    3. Cook the quinoa according to package directions, typically simmering with 2 cups of water or broth until all liquid is absorbed and quinoa is fluffy.
    4. While quinoa cooks, trim and halve the Brussels sprouts.
    5. Peel and chop the carrots into bite-sized pieces.
    6. In a large bowl, toss the Brussels sprouts and carrots with olive oil, ground cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
    7. Spread the seasoned vegetables in a single layer on a baking sheet.
    8. Roast the vegetables for 20-25 minutes, or until tender and slightly caramelized, flipping halfway through.
    9. While vegetables roast, prepare the eggs.
    10. You can boil the eggs for 7-8 minutes for a jammy yolk or 10-12 minutes for a hard-boiled egg.
    11. Alternatively, fry or poach the eggs to your preference.
    12. Once cooked, peel and halve the boiled eggs if using.
    13. Assemble the power bowls by dividing the cooked quinoa among four containers.
    14. Add a portion of roasted vegetables to each container.
