Ingredients
- 1 cup quinoa
- 3 cups Corn from 3-4 ears
- 2.5 cups broccoli florets
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 2 tbs shallots finely diced
- 2.5 cups collard greens cut into ¼ inch ribbons
- ¼ teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup chickpeas (canned) rinsed and drained
- ½ cup tahini
- 2 tablespoon Coconut Aminos or soy sauce if not gluten-free
- 2 tablespoon Water
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of water to a gentle boil. Meanwhile, cook quinoa as per the package directions.
- When the large pot of water begins to boil, add in the corn cobs. After 5 minutes, add the broccoli florets, and cook 3 minutes longer, until crisp/tender and vibrant green. Remove the corn, and place on a cutting board to cool, and then drain the broccoli in a colander, and place in an ice bath to stop the cooking.
- Heat a sauté pan over medium heat. Add olive oil, and add in the finely diced shallot. Stir until fragrant, about 1 minute, then add in the collard greens, stirring until slightly wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Add in the chickpeas and ¼ teaspoon salt, and stir until heated through about 2 additional minutes.
- Remove the corn kernels from the cob using a sharp knife, and then build your bowl. Divide among four containers the corn, quinoa, broccoli, and collard green mixture. In a small bowl, mix the tahini and soy sauce, thinning out with the water as desired. Equally, drizzle on top of each bowl. Store, serve, and enjoy!
