Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 220˚C / 425˚F. Place the carrots on one side of a sheet pan (baking tray) and the broccoli on the other. Drizzle both with olive oil and season both with salt and pepper. Scatter the harissa flakes (or spice blend) over the carrots and toss them to coat. Toss the broccoli to coat. Place in the oven and roast until the vegetables are tender and golden around the edges - the broccoli will take around 15 minutes remove that first whereas the carrots will take closer to 20-25 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, place the kale leaves into a large bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and add a little sea salt. Massage the leaves vigorously for 30 -60 seconds to tenderize them.
  • Scoop the hummus into a bowl. Add the herbs, and squeeze in the juice of 1/2 lemon. Stir to combine.
  • Set out 4 shallow bowls. Place a large dollop of hummus into each bowl and smear it across the bottom and sides. Top with 3/4-1 cup of quinoa, brown rice, black rice or lentils, and then divide the kale, carrot, and broccoli between the bowls. To finish, season with salt and pepper, drizzle with olive oil, squeeze over a little lemon juice and finish with a scatter of everything spice blend, dukkah, furikake, or toasted sesame seeds/nuts.
