🍳 How to Make Quinoa Bowl with Roasted Veggies 

Step 1: Cook the Quinoa

  1. Quinoa should be rinsed under running water to make it less bitter.

3. Boil the mixture. After that, cover the pot and reduce the heat to low.

4. After 15 mins of cooking, turn off the heat and let it sit covered for 5 more minutes.

5. Quinoa should be fluffed with a fork.

Step 2: Roast the Vegetables

  1. The oven should be heated to 200°C/400°F before the work starts.

2. Spread by the side of a baking sheet are chopped sweet potatoes, broccoli, peppers, zucchini, and onion.

3. Put some olive oil on the vegetables and then sprinkle them with paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.

4. Mixing should be thorough.

5. After 20, 25 minutes of roasting, the vegetables should be turned and left to roast for another 20, 25 minutes until they are both tender and golden.

Step 3: Make the Lemon, Tahini Dressing

Prepare a mixture by whisking the following:

  • Tahini
  • Olive oil
  • Lemon juice
  • Honey
  • Garlic
  • Salt & pepper
  • The water should be added one bit at a time until the mixture is smooth and running.

2. Layer the bowl with the roasted veggies

3. Drizzle the lemon, tahini dressing

  1. Add optional toppings (avocado, seeds, parsley, feta, etc.) 

Serve warm or chilled — both taste amazing!
