The roasted Vegetable Quinoa Bowl is a hearty and nutritious vegetarian dinner idea packed with flavors and nutrients. Here's a simple recipe that you can try:
Ingredients:
1 cup quinoa, rinsed and drained
2 cups vegetable broth
1 sweet potato, peeled and chopped
1 red bell pepper, chopped
1 zucchini, chopped
1 red onion, chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp smoked paprika
Salt and pepper to taste
2 cups baby spinach leaves
Lemon wedges for garnish
Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a large mixing bowl, toss the chopped sweet potato, red bell pepper, zucchini, red onion, and garlic with olive oil, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper until everything is well coated.
Spread the vegetables in a single layer on a baking sheet, and roast in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and lightly browned.
Meanwhile, in a medium pot, bring the vegetable broth to a boil, then add the quinoa. Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot with a lid, and let the quinoa simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until all the liquid is absorbed and the quinoa is tender.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked quinoa with the roasted vegetables, and add the baby spinach leaves. Toss everything together until the spinach is wilted.
Serve the roasted vegetable quinoa bowl hot, garnished with lemon wedges.
