Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 2 servings

  • 1 cup vegetable broth

  • ½ cup red quinoa

  • 1 ¾ cups Brussels sprouts

  • ¼ cup cubed carrots

  • ¼ cup peeled and cubed parsnips

  • ½ chopped red onion

  • 2 teaspoons olive oil, divided

  • 1 (15 ounce) can chickpeas, drained and patted dry

  • 1 teaspoon ground turmeric

Dressing:

  • ¼ cup tahini

  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice

  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup

  • 5 tablespoons hot water

  • 1 avocado, mashed

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

  2. Bring vegetable broth and quinoa to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-how, cover, and simmer until quinoa is tender, about 15 minutes.

  3. Place Brussels sprouts, carrots, parsnips, and red onion on a baking sheet; drizzle with 1 teaspoon olive oil.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven until softened, about 10 minutes.

  5. Toss chickpeas with turmeric in a bowl. Heat remaining 1 teaspoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add chickpeas; cook and stir until browned, about 8 minutes.

  6. Combine tahini, lemon juice, and maple syrup in a bowl until well incorporated. Add hot water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until dressing is thin and smooth.

  7. Divide quinoa, roasted vegetables, chickpeas, and mashed avocado between two serving bowls. Drizzle 1 tablespoon dressing over each bowl.
