This high-protein, low-GI breakfast comes together in 20 minutes—enjoy with a protein shake for that classic California health vibe.
Ingredients (Serves 1)
- 80g cooked quinoa (cooled)
- 100g pumpkin (peeled)
- ½ avocado
- 1 fried egg
- 50g mixed salad greens
- 3 cherry tomatoes (halved)
Sesame Dressing:
- 1 tsp light soy sauce
- ½ tsp sesame oil
- 1 tsp lemon juice
- A pinch of salt
Instructions
1. Shred the Pumpkin: Even & Quick-Roasting
Cut the pumpkin into 3cm chunks and place them in the Geedel Vegetable Chopper. Rotate the handle clockwise five times to create fine, uniform strips. Consistent thickness ensures even roasting—no burnt or undercooked pieces. This method saves 10 minutes compared to cubing and allows the strips to absorb olive oil better, resulting in a tender, sweet, and lightly crisp texture.
2. Dry the Greens: Crisp & Clean
Rinse the salad greens, tear into bite-sized pieces, and spin in the Salad Spinner for 15 seconds. Removing excess water keeps the leaves crisp and prevents them from wilting or making the quinoa soggy.
3. Dice the Avocado: Neat & Oxidation-Free
Pit, peel, and cut the avocado into 2cm chunks. Place them in the Veggie Chopper and rotate twice for evenly sized dices with smooth, unoxidized surfaces. Spread over the quinoa—each bite delivers creamy goodness without uneven texture.
4. Assemble the Power Bowl: Fuel for Your Day
Layer the bowl with greens, quinoa, roasted pumpkin strips, fried egg, avocado dices, and cherry tomatoes. Combine the dressing ingredients in the Manual Food Processor and blend for 10 seconds until smooth. Drizzle over the bowl. Every bite is packed with protein, carbs, and healthy fats—a low-calorie, satisfying meal that meets the dietary needs of California’s fitness-focused crowd.
Conclusion
This power bowl delivers efficient nutrition with Geedel's help: evenly shredded pumpkin, crisp greens from the salad spinner, fresh avocado via the veggie chopper, and smooth dressings from the manual processor. Simple to prepare yet nutritionally complete, it's the ideal post-workout meal that fuels active lifestyles.
