  • Author: Luna
  • Total Time: 35 minutes

Ingredients

– 1 cup quinoa, rinsed
– 2 cups vegetable broth or water
– 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
– 1 bell pepper, diced (any color)
– 1 zucchini, diced
– 1 cup broccoli florets
– 1 avocado, sliced
– ½ cup cooked chickpeas (canned or boiled)
– ¼ cup finely chopped red onion
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– Salt and pepper, to taste
– Fresh herbs (like parsley or cilantro) for garnishing
– Your favorite dressing (like tahini, vinaigrette, or yogurt-based)


Instructions

Creating your Quinoa Veggie Bowl is straightforward when you follow these simple steps:

1. Cook the Quinoa: In a medium saucepan, combine quinoa and vegetable broth (or water). Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15-20 minutes until the quinoa is fluffy and absorbs all the liquid. Set aside.
2. Prepare the Vegetables: While the quinoa is cooking, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
3. Roast the Veggies: Spread the cherry tomatoes, bell pepper, zucchini, and broccoli on the baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss well. Roast in the preheated oven for 15 minutes or until the veggies are tender and slightly caramelized.
4. Assemble the Bowl: In a large bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, roasted vegetables, sliced avocado, cooked chickpeas, and red onion. Toss gently to mix.
5. Dress the Bowl: Drizzle your dressing of choice over the veggie mix. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
6. Serve: Garnish with fresh herbs and serve immediately, or store in the fridge for future meals.

These straightforward steps ensure that you have a delicious Quinoa Veggie Bowl ready without fuss.
