Before You Dive Into This Delicious Recipe… 🍲

Let me ask you something.

Have you ever said, “I know I should eat more plants... but I just don’t know how to make it work in real life?”

If so—you’re not alone. And you’re exactly who I created The PlantWhys Collective for.

It’s not a diet. It’s not a challenge.
It’s a lifestyle shift for real women with real lives—who want to feel better, lose weight, and stop feeling overwhelmed by all the “shoulds” when it comes to food.

Inside the Collective, you’ll get:

✅ A gentle, step-by-step 40-day Jumpstart
✅ Weekly live support + check-ins with certified coaches
✅ Quick, feel-good Pilates workouts (just 5 minutes a day)
✅ Monthly mindset coaching and book club
✅ Live cooking classes + bonus cookbooks
✅ And a private community (no Facebook drama here)

It’s like the support system you’ve always wanted, all in one place—with no guilt, no fads, and no shame.

You’ll see everything laid out clearly—whether you want to dip your toe in monthly or go all-in for the year.

You don’t need to go plant-based overnight.
You just need a simple path—and someone to walk it with you.

Now… ready for the recipe? Let’s do this. 🌱

Enjoy this grain bowl that gives you a triple threat: green, grain and bean to your meal in one easy dish!

Ingredients
1½ cups quinoa
2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
1 red onion, peeled and diced
salt and black pepper
1 can chickpeas or garbanzo beans
1 cucumber, peeled and diced
2 to 3 cups baby spinach
diced avocado
chopped, fresh cilantro

PEANUT SAUCE:
⅓ cup fresh lime juice
¼ cup peanut butter
2 tbsp soy sauce or tamari
1 tablespoon sesame oil, preferably toasted
1 to 2 teaspoons honey or maple syrup
1 teaspoon chili-garlic sauce, optional
1 clove garlic, finely minced

Instructions
1.Cook the quinoa according to package directions
2.While the quinoa cooks, preheat the oven to 425°F.
3.Toss the sweet potatoes and onion on a large sheet pan with water and a sprinkle of salt and pepper.
4.Make sure to watch the pan closely and keep extra water on hand so your food doesn’t burn.
5.Roast in the oven until tender, 20 minutes or so, flipping once or twice.
6.Add a scoop of cooked quinoa to serving bowls.
7.Add roasted sweet potatoes, onions, chickpeas, handful of spinach, diced avocado, chopped cucumbers, and a sprinkle of cilantro.
8.Drizzle dressing over the top and dig in.

Peanut Sauce:
Whisk or blend all the ingredients together until smooth (this can be done several days in advance; refrigerate the dressing).

*Nut-Free: Use tahini instead of peanut butter
*FODMAP Swap: Limit your intake of chickpeas to ¼ cup; Limit to less than ½ avocado per serving; use green onion tops, leeks or chives instead of onions or garlic; use garlic-infused oil and omit garlic; use 1 teaspoon honey instead of 2 teaspoons or use maple syrup instead; use canned lentils instead of chickpeas which can be easier on some stomachs

*Don’t forget to preload on vegetables before you eat
