Ingredients

  • 200g black beans
  • 120g quinoa
  • 80g spinach
  • 80g cucumber
  • 50g tzatziki
  • 10g lemon juice
  • 30g red onion
  • 1 tsp dried oregano & smoked paprika

Method

  1. 1

    Prep everything first: wash and trim the spinach and cucumber, then measure out the sauce ingredients.

  2. 2

    Rinse the quinoa and simmer in 2 parts water for 15 minutes until the tails appear, then fluff.

  3. 3

    Warm the black beans in a pan with a splash of water and the seasoning, lightly crushing a few to thicken.

  4. 4

    Rub the protein with oregano, paprika and lemon. Spoon over cool tzatziki and scatter with the sliced red onion when serving.

  5. 5

    Meanwhile, steam or stir-fry the spinach and cucumber for 3-5 minutes until just tender with a little bite.

  6. 6

    Build the bowl: quinoa first, then the veg and black bean, spooning over any remaining sauce. Finish with the cucumber.
