Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and minced garlic, and sauté for 3-4 minutes until the onion is translucent and fragrant.
Add the plant-based ground beef to the skillet, breaking it up with a spatula, and cook for 5-7 minutes until browned and heated through.
Stir in the soy sauce, maple syrup, smoked paprika, and black pepper. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the mixture is well combined and the flavors meld together. Remove from heat and set aside.
In another pan, heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat.
Add the broccoli florets and red bell pepper, and stir-fry for about 5 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
Add the julienned carrot to the pan and stir-fry for another 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
To assemble the bowls, divide the cooked quinoa among four serving bowls.
Top each bowl with a generous portion of the savory plant-based beef mixture.
Add the stir-fried vegetables on top, sprinkling each bowl with sesame seeds.
Garnish with sliced green onions and a drizzle of sriracha if desired for extra heat.
Serve the bowls warm and enjoy!
