Cook the quinoa according to the package instructions. Preheat the oven to 220°C (top/bottom heat). Briefly rinse the chickpeas under running water and then pat dry. Wash the lamb’s lettuce thoroughly and spin dry. Remove the skin and, if using, the pit from half an avocado and cut the flesh into pieces. Wash, deseed, and slice the bell pepper. Squeeze half a lemon. Spread the chickpeas evenly on a baking sheet and toss with olive oil, oregano, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Then place the chickpeas in the oven for 15 to 20 minutes. Meanwhile, combine all the dressing ingredients in a blender and blend. Combine the quinoa and chickpeas with the lamb’s lettuce and transfer to a bowl. Garnish with half an avocado. Then pour the dressing over the top. This dish contains 770 kcal per serving.
