Ingredients
250g pumpkin, cut into small cubes
2 cups rocket
1 capsicum, diced
8 cherry tomatoes, halved
1 Lebanese cucumber, diced
1 lemon
200g chicken breast, cut into small pieces
1/2 cup quinoa (yields 1 1/2 cups of cooked quinoa)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon sea salt

Place the pumpkin and the chicken on the tray and cook in the oven for 20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
To cook the quinoa, place in a saucepan, add 1 cup of water and bring to the boil. Once boiling, turn the heat down to a simmer and cook with the lid on for 15 minutes, or until the water has absorbed and quinoa is cooked.
Once all the cooked elements are complete, it’s time to build your bowl. Arrange the rocket, capsicum, cheery tomatoes, cucumber, chicken, pumpkin, quinoa and avocado in your bowl. Finish with a drizzle of tahini, a squeeze of lemon juice, and season with salt and pepper.
