Roasted Squash & Quinoa Salad
Ingredients:
- 1 medium butternut squash, peeled and diced
- 1 cup quinoa, rinsed
- 2 cups vegetable broth
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp cumin
- 1 tsp paprika
- 2 tbsp tahini
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss the diced squash with olive oil, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes until golden and tender.
- Meanwhile, cook the quinoa in vegetable broth—bring to a boil, then simmer covered for 15 minutes or until the liquid is absorbed. Fluff with a fork.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the tahini and lemon juice, thinning with water as needed to make a smooth dressing.
- In a large bowl, combine the roasted squash and quinoa. Drizzle with the tahini dressing and toss gently to coat.
- Serve warm, topped with fresh parsley for a burst of freshness!
