Ingredients
  

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1/2 teaspoon cumin

Salt and black pepper, to taste

1 cup cooked quinoa

1 cup fresh spinach

1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled (optional)

1 avocado, sliced (for topping)

Balsamic glaze (for drizzling)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

    Prepare Sweet Potatoes: In a large bowl, toss the cubed sweet potatoes with half of the olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper. Spread them evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

      Bake Sweet Potatoes: Roast the sweet potatoes in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and tender, flipping halfway through.

        Cook Chicken: While the sweet potatoes are baking, season the chicken breasts with the remaining olive oil, salt, black pepper, and a sprinkle of smoked paprika. Grill the chicken over medium-high heat for about 6-7 minutes on each side until cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Alternatively, you can pan-sear or bake them.

          Prepare Quinoa: Cook quinoa according to package instructions (usually 1 cup quinoa to 2 cups water). Fluff with a fork once done.

            Assemble Bowls: In serving bowls, layer the cooked quinoa first, followed by fresh spinach, roasted sweet potatoes, and sliced chicken.

              Top and Drizzle: Finish by topping the bowls with avocado slices, crumbled feta cheese (if using), and a drizzle of balsamic glaze.

                Serve: Enjoy these wholesome and flavorful bowls hot!
