These superfood bowls make 2 servings, perfect to share with someone else, or 2 servings for yourself if you don't feel like sharing. I don't like using the word "superfood", but these bowls are packed with all the "superfoods" I can think of, including avocado, salmon, quinoa, and beets. It's delicious, filling, customizable, tasty, while also being high in protein, healthy fats, fiber, and complex carbs.

ROASTED VEGGIES
- 1 large (200 g) Beets
- 1 large (164 g) Bell pepper
- 1/2 tsp (2.5 g) Extra virgin olive oil
- 1/8 tsp (0.75 g) Salt
- 1/8 tsp (0.38 g) Black pepper, ground

QUINOA
- 1/4 cup (45 g) Quinoa
- 1/2 cup (120 g) Water
- 1/8 tsp (0.75 g) Salt

KALE
- 1 lb (454 g) Frozen kale, thawed
- 1 tsp (5 g) Extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tbsp (10 g) Chili powder
- 1/2 tbsp (4.5 g) Garlic powder
- 1/2 tbsp (4.5 g) Onion powder
- 1 tsp (4 g) Lemon pepper

OTHER INGREDIENTS
- 1 medium (136 g) Avocado
- 1 medium (69 g) Kiwi
- 1 oz (28 g) Pumpkin seeds
- 2 x 5 oz, drained (170 g) Canned salmon
- 1/4 cup (60 g) Sauerkraut
- 2 tbsp (30 g) Dijon mustard

1. Roasted Veggies
Wash your beet, wrap in aluminum foil, and air fry at 400F for about 45 minutes, or until soft (timing depends on the size of your beets). Unwrap the beet, discard the ends, and cut into a medium dice (keep the skin on!!)

Meanwhile, cut your pepper into large pieces, season with oil, salt, and black pepper, and air fry for 10 minutes (have the beet and pepper finish at the same time). Cut into a medium dice

2. Quinoa
Add quinoa, water, and salt to a small pot. Bring to a boil, cover, reduce to medium, and let simmer for about 12 minutes, until fully cooked. Set aside

3. Kale
Heat a large pan over medium heat with olive oil. Cover and cook your kale with spices (chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, and lemon pepper) until the water is cooked out and it just starts to brown and stick to the pan (about 10 minutes)

4. Pumpkin Seeds
Toast your pumpkin seeds in a small pan over medium heat until fragrant (3-5 minutes). Set aside

5. Assemble
Prepare your 2 bowls with a base of half your kale, and add half the quinoa on top to each bowl. Top each with half of your diced beets and peppers

Add 1/2 sliced avocado to each bowl. Cut your kiwi into a small dice (with the skin!!), and add half to each bowl. Add half your pumpkin seeds to each bowl

Add any protein source you have (I'm going with canned salmon here)

Top each bowl with half of your sauerkraut and half of your mustard. Mix, and serve warm or cold
