This Roasted Winter Vegetable Medley with quinoa makes a perfect side to any dish! Get all your vegetables ready in 35-minutes!
Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet/pan with foil. Add chopped/diced vegetables to the pan. Add olive oil and seasoning: thyme, pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Toss and cover with foil.
Roast for 30-35 minutes, or until vegetables are fork-tender. Remove foil half-way and toss vegetables around for even roasting.
At this time, make the quinoa by bringing 1 cup of water to a boil with the uncooked quinoa. Reduce heat to low (gas-stove) or turn off (electric stove) and cover with a lid. Let it sit for 15-minutes to absorb all water. Use a fork to fluff the quinoa and transfer to a glass serving bowl. Add lemon juice, parsley, and a healthy pinch of salt and pepper, and mix to combine.
Once the vegetables are fork-tender, add them to the quinoa and mix to combine. Serve immediately.
