preparation
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 400°F.
2. Place chickpeas on a rimmed baking sheet. Add olive oil, turmeric, garlic powder, ground ginger, and a few pinches of salt and pepper. Toss to coat and bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden and crispy. Set aside.
3. Place spiralized beets on a large rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat. Bake for 10 minutes or until "al dente." Beets should still have some bite.
4. While the beets are roasting, heat a skillet to medium-high heat and add sesame oil. Add carrots and sauté for a couple of minutes. Season with salt, pepper, and sesame seeds. Set aside.
5. Make the dressing. In a bowl, whisk together almond butter, ginger, sesame oil, honey, hot water, and lemon juice until creamy.
6. Soft boil the eggs in water at 176°F for 7 minutes.
7. For the pickles, bring the pickling liquid, sugar, white vinegar, and salt to a boil. Pour over sliced cucumbers and let set for 20 minutes.
8. Prepare the avocado by removing the pit and slicing.
9. Portion beet noodles into bowls and top with sautéed carrots, turmeric chickpeas, a drizzle of dressing, a squeeze of lemon, and sesame seeds. Add pickles, a pinch of fresh cilantro, scallions, and half of a soft-boiled egg.
