Prepare the cauliflower rice by heating 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the cauliflower rice and sautรฉ for 5โ7 minutes until softened. Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
Slice the cherry tomatoes in half, dice the cucumber, and thinly shred the purple cabbage. Set the vegetables aside.
Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and slice the flesh into thin slices or cubes.
Arrange the Buddha bowl by creating even sections of each ingredient: start with a base of baby spinach, then add the cooked cauliflower rice, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, purple cabbage, avocado, and chickpeas to the bowl.
Make the tahini dressing by whisking together tahini, lemon juice, warm water, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl until smooth and creamy. Adjust the consistency by adding more water, if needed.
Drizzle the tahini dressing over the prepared Buddha bowls.
Top the bowls with sesame seeds for added crunch and garnish, if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy your fresh, low-carb Buddha bowl!
