Roasted Winter Vegetable Medley

We need more side dishes in our dinner routine. Ones that are not all starch, and actual vegetables. This side dish is packed with different vegetables and then mixed with quinoa for protein and fiber!

If you have picky kiddo or partner who doesn’t like plain-jane vegetables, then you have to try this! There is a ton of flavor by simply roasting the vegetables with some olive oil and seasoning. Just that simple!

I hope you all enjoy this side dish!

It has a ton of flavor and it goes perfectly with any type of protein: tofu, fish, or chicken!

Ingredients

Veggies:

• ▢ 5 carrots sliced
• ▢ 1-2 broccoli heads 1 large or 2 small (cut into florets )
• ▢ ½ cup butternut squash cubed
• ▢ 2 tbsp olive oil
• ▢ ½ tsp fresh thyme
• ▢ pinch of red pepper flakes
• ▢ pinch of salt and pepper

Quinoa:

• ▢ ½ cup uncooked quinoa
• ▢ 1 cup filtered water
• ▢ 2 tbsp lemon juice
• ▢ 2 tbsp fresh parsley chopped
• ▢ pinch of salt and pepper

Instructions

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet/pan with foil. Add chopped/diced vegetables to 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.
