Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.

3. Prepare the quinoa according to the specifications on the bag. Hold hot for service.
4. In a medium pot over high heat, combine the cooked lentils, turmeric, cumin, smoked paprika, and salt.
5. Assemble the bowl: Start with about 1/2 cup of cooked quinoa. On the left side of the bowl, add 1/2 cup of the roasted multicolored carrots. On the right side of the bowl, add half of a sliced avocado. Top the sliced avocado with 1/2 cup of spring greens. Top the bowl with 1/2 cup of the spiced lentils and then 1/4 cup of baby arugula greens. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of tzatziki over the bowl and garnish with chopped cilantro.
