Ingredients
1/3 cup quinoa
½ a cucumber, or 1 head of broccoli, steamed
A handful of sugar snaps, sliced
1 cup shredded purple cabbage
1 avocado

- For the Lemon Tahini Dressing
1/4 cup tahini
1/3 cup water

1/8 teaspoon pepper
Directions
- Place the quinoa in a small saucepan with ¾ cup of cold water, and bring to the boil. Cover and reduce the heat, and allow to simmer for 15 minutes. If it becomes dry add a splash more water and cover, until all the seeds have ‘opened up’ and it is cooked. Set aside.
- Cut the cucumber into thin slices.
- Into two bowls, divide the quinoa. Then divide the cucumber, cabbage, avocado, tomatoes, and sesame seeds, and drizzle over the Lemon Tahini Dressing.
- Serve immediately, or cover and store for later. This Vegan Bowl is wonderful served either hot or cold.
