Method

For the roasted veggies:

  1. Preheat your oven to 220 C / Fan 200 C / Gas 7. In a large bowl, toss together the sweet potato, carrot, red pepper, olive oil, thyme, cumin, salt and pepper. Arrange on a parchment paper-lined baking tray in a single layer.
  2. Add the beets to the bowl and toss until coated in the remaining oil mixture. Add to the baking tray with the other veggies. Roast, turning once, for 20-30 minutes or until tender.

For the buddha bowl:

  1. Meanwhile, heat the oil in large wide frying pan over a medium heat. Cook the onions, garlic, paprika, cumin, coriander, pepper, salt and cinnamon for 3-5 minutes until starting to soften. Stir in the Quorn Mince and cook for 2-3 minutes or until well coated. Stir in the kale, then cook for another 5-7 minutes or until wilted and tender.
  2. Divide the bulgur wheat between 4 bowls. Top each bowl with the roasted veggies, Quorn Mince and kale mixture, goats cheese, pumpkin seeds and cranberries.

For the lemon chive vinaigrette:

  1. Whisk together oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, honey, chives and salt. Drizzle over the power bowl before serving.
