  • 1 fennel bulb sliced
  • 1 can chickpeas rinsed
  • 1/2 cup harissa
  • 2 in avocados slicedhalf
  • 1 cup sunflower sprouts
  • 1 small red onion sliced
  • 4 tbsp sunflower seeds
  • Ranch dressing optional

Sweet Potato Fritters

  • 2-3 tablespoons of coconut oil for cooking
  • 2 large zucchini washed and grated
  • 1 large sweet potato washed, peeled and grated
  • Pinch of sea salt and black pepper
  • 5 large eggs
  • 1 cup heapingof shredded old cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup whole wheat or multigrain bread crumbs
  • 2 tablespoons of fresh or dried parsley chopped
  • 1 large onion finely diced

Instructions

  • Preheat BBQ to med-high heat.
  • Make fritters according to directions below. Make ahead of time for faster bowl assembly, or make before assembling bowls.
  • Cook soba noodles according to package directions. Drain and rinse chickpeas, then toss in harissa in large bowl.
  • Slice fennel into chunks, then grill for about 4-5 min per side.
  • Meanwhile, start to assemble bowls by placing all ingredients inside. Add fritters and grilled fennel at the end. Drizzle with ranch or lemon vinaigrette and enjoy!

For the fritters:

  • Spread grated zucchini and sweet potato onto some paper towels and pat dry, trying to remove as much moisture as possible. Let them sit out for about 10 minutes to further dry.
  • Add all ingredients to a large bowl (except the coconut oil) and mix thoroughly.
  • Add 2 tablespoons of coconut or olive oil to a skillet or frying pan on medium heat
  • Form 2-3cm balls of mixture with your hands and add to pan. Using a soup spoon, flatten the balls to about 5-6cm diameter discs (try to avoid the edges of each fritter touching).
  • Cook the fritters for 3-4 min on each side until golden brown.
  • Remove fritters from the pan and let drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Repeat until fritter mixture is used up.
