Roasted Broccoli Quinoa Salad | Healthy Recipe

A heavenly broiled broccoli quinoa plate of mixed greens with cooked yams, kale and a delightful lemon dressing. Extraordinary as a sans gluten vegan primary! 

Hello! I trust you made some beautiful memories celebrating the New Year. In the wake of spending New Year's Eve in Vegas a year ago, I was prepared for something a touch all the more serene this year. We wound up going through the night with a similar couple we went to Vegas with — made supper at their home, did a champagne toast at 12 PM, moved and played foosball. It was great!

INGREDIENTS

2 cups water (or veggie broth)
1 cup dry quinoa
½ pound broccoli, cut into florets
1 can (15 oz) chickpeas
1 sweet potato, chopped into ¼ – ½ inch chunks
1 bunch laccinto kale, roughly chopped
¼ cup fresh parsley
olive oil, as needed
3 Tablespoons feta cheese
1/2 Tablespoon apple cider vinegar
juice from one lemon
2 teaspoons maple syrup
3 Tablespoons olive oil
salt and ground pepper, to taste
crushed red pepper, to taste (optional)

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Preheat oven to 425ºF.
  2. Rinse and drain quinoa if needed. Place quinoa and water in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce heat to simmer, cover and let it cook for 15 minutes. Remove from heat after 15 minutes and place quinoa in a large bowl to cool.
  3. Drain and rinse your canned chickpeas. Place the chickpeas on a paper towel or hand towel to dry.
  4. Toss broccoli and sweet potato chunks with a little olive oil and roast at 425ºF for about 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, add your kale and chickpeas to the roasting pan. Toss, and roast for another 15 minutes. Stirring the veggies around at least once during the roasting process.
  5. Once your veggies are nice and roasted, remove from the oven and combine them with the quinoa.
  6. Chop parsley, crumble feta and add to the quinoa and vegetable mixture.
  7. In a small bowl, whisk together lemon juice, vinegar and maple syrup. Gently stir in oil, and add salt, pepper and crushed red pepper flakes to taste. Toss dressing over quinoa/vegetable mixture.
  8. Enjoy and store any leftovers in the fridge for 4-5 days.
