Mango Curry Hummus Quinoa Bowls

A big part of my motivation for writing this blog is to contribute, in whatever small way, to a message that vegan food doesn’t have to be about what isn’t there. That if you focus on what’s delicious and {mostly} wholesome, the rest will fall into place, whatever that might mean for you and your lifestyle. I feel like these mango curry hummus quinoa bowls are tailor-made for that philosophy, because I can think of very few people, vegan or not, who don’t love mango, curry, or hummus.

Mango Curry Hummus Quinoa Bowls - Yup, it's Vegan

Eating vegan food like this takes no leap of faith! I added quinoa because I love that hummus/quinoa combination and because it’s an excellent source of nutrition; and a spicy, tangy carrot slaw with cilantro to bring everything together. These bowls are hearty and tasty, and keep me going for hours.

Ingredients

For the mango curry hummus:

  • 1 cup chopped ripe mango
  • 2 small cloves garlic chopped
  • 2 tbsp tahini
  • 1 lemon juiced (plus additional lemon juice to taste)
  • 1 tbsp Indian curry powder
  • 1/4 tsp ground cumin
  • ¼ tsp cayenne pepper (optional)
  • ½ tsp smoked paprika
  • ¼ tsp salt plus more to taste
  • 2 cups cooked chickpeas

For the tangy carrot slaw:

  • 2 medium carrots peeled and shredded
  • ½ of a seeded jalapeno (optional) halved and thinly sliced
  • ¼ medium red onion thinly sliced
  • 1 lime zested and juiced
  • 1 tbsp agave nectar
  • 1 tsp tamari or soy sauce

For the mango curry hummus quinoa bowls:

  • 4 cups cooked quinoa
  • mango curry hummus (recipe above)
  • carrot slaw (recipe above)
  • 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • additional veggies of choice (pictured is roasted rutabaga) (optional/to taste)

Instructions

To make the mango curry hummus:

  • Combine the mango, garlic, tahini, and lemon juice in a blender or food processor until smooth (or as smooth as you can get it).
  • Add the curry powder, cayenne pepper if using, smoked paprika, salt, and chickpeas, and puree until completely smooth.
  • Add more salt and lemon juice to taste, and set aside.

To make the slaw:

  • Sprinkle the shredded carrot with a pinch of salt and let sit in a sieve or colander for a few minutes to drain some of the liquid. Meanwhile, stir the onion and jalapeno (if using) together with the lime juice in a bowl.
  • To the bowl, add the carrot, lime zest, agave nectar or honey, and tamari or soy sauce. Stir to combine all of the ingredients, adjust seasoning to taste, and set aside.

To assemble a quinoa bowl:

  • To each bowl, add about 1 cup of the quinoa, 1/4 of the hummus, 1/4 of the carrot slaw, 2 tablespoons cilantro, and any other veggies being used. Leftovers will keep in the fridge for about a week; store the slaw in a separate container.
