Why Make These Quinoa Veggie Bowls
Who doesn’t love a roasted veggie bowl? The topping options are endless, you can change it up with several different roasted veggies. This bowl can be topped with different proteins like chicken, salmon, shrimp, halloumi or keep it vegetarian with tofu. You can also make these bowls vegan by using vegan cheese.
I like to make my own hummus dressing for this bowl, I have the instructions for this below in the recipe card. You can dress these bowls with any dressing you like. Italian, roasted red pepper dressing, balsamic and more. These bowls are a great lunch or lighter dinner as well. Enjoy!
Ingredients Needed
Quinoa. Any color will work.
Fresh Veggies To Roast. I like to use broccoli Or broccolini. Cauliflower, peppers, carrots, beets whatever is in season will also work.
Red Onion. Any color onion will work.
Seasonings. Garlic powder, Oregano, Pepper, Salt.
Olive Oil. For the roasted veggies. A neutral, high quality oil.
Feta. Goat cheese, or vegan feta will also work.
Tomatoes. Cherry tomatoes.
Sauce Of Choice. I use hummus for my “sauce”. My roasted red pepper dressing would be great on this.
Optional Toppings. Avocado, tofu, chicken, fish, olives, nuts, seeds. I used sliced avocado but love salmon on this.
Steps To Make Quinoa Veggie Bowls
Step One. Preheat oven to 400º. Start to cook your quinoa according to package. Chop up onions, broccoli, and any other veggies you choose to use. Line a cooking sheet with parchment paper, place veggies on it in a single layer. Season and oil the veggies and toss together to evenly coat them. I use my hands as it works the best.
Step Two. Roast the veggies for about 15-20 minutes. Toss them in between to be sure an even roast. While they are roasting, chop up any fresh ingredients (avocado, tomato or any non baked items). Get your sauce/dressing ready.
Step Three. Assemble your bowl, crumble the cheese and dress it how you’d like. and enjoy. This will keep for up to 3 days in the refrigerator in an airtight container.
