Ingredients:
- 1 lb Yukon Gold potatoes, cubed
- 3 large carrots, sliced into rounds
- 1 cup Brussels sprouts, halved
- 1 red bell pepper, chopped into 1-inch pieces
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tsp dried rosemary
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1 cup uncooked quinoa, rinsed
- 2 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
- 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, toss the cubed potatoes, sliced carrots, halved Brussels sprouts, and chopped red bell pepper with 2 tbsp olive oil, rosemary, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until lightly coated.
- Spread the vegetables in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Roast for 30–35 minutes, tossing halfway through, until the potatoes are golden-brown and the Brussels sprouts have charred edges.
- While the vegetables roast, combine the rinsed quinoa and vegetable broth in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to low.
- Simmer the quinoa for 15 minutes until the liquid is absorbed and the grains are fluffy. Remove from heat and stir in the lemon juice and chopped parsley.
- Divide the herbed quinoa among four bowls and top each with a portion of the roasted vegetables.
- Whisk together the remaining 2 tbsp olive oil, apple cider vinegar, minced garlic, and smoked paprika, then drizzle evenly over each bowl.
