1 cup quinoa
1 cup green beans
1 cup spinach
1 avocado
1 sweet potato
Char Crust® Roasted Garlic Peppercorn

Potatoes and Green Beans:
Preheat oven to 425°F.
Rinse sweet potatoes and chop up into cubes. Rinse green beans and cut off stems. Place sweet potatoes and green beans on opposite sides of baking sheet (use parchment paper for easier clean up). Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with Char Crust Roto Roast. Place in oven. Cook potatoes for 30 minutes, flipping every 10 minutes. Cook green beans for 15-20 minutes, until crispy.
Quinoa:
While veggies are baking, cook quinoa following package instructions.
Chicken Breast:
Heat 1 tbsp of olive oil in medium skillet. Coat the chicken breast with Roasted Garlic Peppercorn, covering all sides. Drizzle or spray with olive oil. Place in pan. Flip every 2 minutes until chicken reaches internal temperature of 165°F.
Make the Bowl:
Wash spinach. Cut avocado into thin slices. Place the quinoa in bowl. Place the spinach, green beans, sweet potatoes, avocado, and chicken on top of quinoa. Drizzle honey dijon over the bowl (or see optional homemade creamy mustard sauce recipe below).
