  23. 1/2 avocado, sliced
  24. 1/2 cup shredded carrots
  25. 1/4 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

Instructions

Make the Sweet Potato Fritters:

  1. Grate the sweet potatoes and squeeze out excess moisture with a clean kitchen towel. In a large bowl, combine grated sweet potatoes, chickpea flour, breadcrumbs, green onions, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
  2. Form small patties with the mixture (2-3 inches in diameter). Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat and cook fritters for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy. Remove from the pan and place on a paper towel-lined plate.
  3. Prepare the Jalapeño Ranch Dressing:
  4. Blend the Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, lime juice, jalapeño, garlic powder, onion powder, dill, salt, and pepper until smooth. Adjust the seasoning as needed.
  5. Assemble the Bliss Bowls:
  6. Start with a base of cooked quinoa or rice in each bowl. Add mixed greens, cucumber, shredded carrots, avocado slices, and cherry tomatoes on top.
  7. Place 2-3 sweet potato fritters on top of the salad and drizzle with jalapeño ranch dressing. Garnish with cilantro or parsley, if desired.
  8. Serve:
  9. Serve the bliss bowls immediately with a generous drizzle of dressing.

Notes

  • Storage: Store the individual components of the salad separately in airtight containers for up to 2-3 days. Keep the dressing in a separate container to avoid sogginess.
  • Reheating: To reheat the fritters, place them in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes or heat them in a skillet until crispy again.
