Cover the first baking sheet (with the vegetables) with foil for the first 15 minutes to ensure even roasting—Bake for a total of 30 minutes, or until golden brown and tender.
  • While the vegetables are baking, add 1/4 quinoa to a small saucepan. Fill with 1/2 cup water and bring to a boil. Turn off the heat and place a lid on top to cook for 15 minutes. Do not move the saucepan from the burner or remove the lid. (When fully cooked, fluff the quinoa with a fork).
  • To serve, add spinach and divide quinoa, roasted vegetables, and the roasted chickpeas between two serving plates or bowls. Garnish with sesame seeds, green onions, sprouts, and top with the tahini dressing. 
  • Best when fresh. Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
