Veggie Quinoa Bowl

I LOVE quinoa bowls! This one has a wonderful array of flavors, textures, colors, and nutrients!

This recipe has been growing and evolving in my house for years now. Every time it’s made, we add a new veggie, try a different bean, add new flavors, or try a different roast method. This is the always-satisfying/foolproof/flavorful/crowd-pleasing combination! It’s full of nutrition, and I always go back for seconds. Each veggie gets its own flavor combination, and I listed them individually below. I have to look at it like this, otherwise I’ll forget something!

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups cooked quinoa

Broccoli

  • 1 large head broccoli, chopped into florets
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp sriracha
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

Chickpeas

  • 1 can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 2 tsp olive oil
  • 2 tsp sriracha
  • 2 tsp soy sauce

Sweet Potato

  • 1 medium sweet potato, cubed
  • 2 tsp olive oil
  • 2 tsp sriracha
  • salt & pepper

Kale

  • – cup (packed) kale
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp lime juice
  • 1/2 tsp chili powder

If you’ve never made quinoa before, here is my cliffs notes recipe: bring 1 cup of rinsed quinoa + 2 cups of water to a boil. Cover, lower to a simmer, and cook for about 20 minutes or until the quinoa is fluffy and the water is almost gone.


Method:

  • Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F/200 degrees C. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Prep your veggies. Starting with the broccoli, combine each veggie with the listed ingredients, then spread them out on the baking sheet. I use the same bowl for each veggie – more flavor and fewer dishes!
  • Leave room for the kale on the baking sheet but remove it for now, you will add it on later.
  • Bake for 10 minutes. Remove from oven, flip/toss the veggies, then bake for another 10 minutes. When 5 minutes remain, add the kale to the baking sheet.
  • Combine the veggies in a bowl with quinoa. Enjoy & share!
