Total Time:45 minutes
Yield:4 servings 1x
Ingredients
Scale
1 cup quinoa, uncooked
2 cups water or vegetable broth
4 cups assorted vegetables (broccoli, bell peppers, red onion, zucchini, sweet potatoes, cauliflower)
2–3 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
Garlic powder
Paprika
Dried oregano
Avocado slices (optional)
Feta cheese or vegan cheese alternative (optional)
Fresh herbs (parsley, cilantro) (optional)
Lemon wedges (optional)
Nuts or seeds (pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds) (optional)
Hummus (optional)
Instructions
Rinse the quinoa in a fine-mesh sieve under cold water. In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed quinoa with water or vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until all the liquid is absorbed and the quinoa is fluffy. Fluff with a fork and set aside.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). In a large bowl, toss the chopped vegetables with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and dried oregano. Spread the vegetables in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast for 20-25 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized, flipping halfway through.
Divide the cooked quinoa among bowls. Top with the roasted vegetables. Add avocado slices for healthy fats, feta cheese (or a vegan alternative) for a tangy kick, and fresh herbs for a burst of flavor. A squeeze of lemon juice can brighten everything up.
