Autism:quinoa and Roasted Veggie Bowl with Sunbutter Dressing
Autism Benefits: • Quinoa is a gluten-free whole grain rich in complete protein, iron, and magnesium, which support neurotransmitter balance, energy production, and mood regulation. • Roasted Carrots offer beta-carotene (vitamin A) to support immune and gut lining health, along with natural sweetness for sensory-friendly appeal. • Roasted Zucchini is easy to digest, high in water, and provides vitamin C, which supports detoxification and reduces oxidative stress. • Sunflower Seed Butter is a great nut-free alternative, rich in vitamin E, healthy fats, and selenium, all of which support brain and immune function. • Lemon Juice adds a small boost of vitamin C, which enhances iron absorption and supports the nervous system. • Maple Syrup (small amount) provides natural sweetness to make the dressing more palatable while avoiding refined sugars that can spike blood sugar or behavior.
