I am all about easy recipes and this quinoa with roasted vegetables is no exception. Not only is this quinoa with roasted vegetables easy, but it calls for ingredients you may already have in your kitchen! It’s going to be one of my go to recipes for sure. Great in summer or winter. Eat it hot or cold. If you like quinoa recipes, you may also like this and this.
I was really amazed that this dish had so much flavor with such simple ingredients. Another thing you can probably do with this is to cook the quinoa in vegetable broth instead of water. It should add an even deeper level of flavor. This dish is vegan and gluten free. I hope you enjoy it.
