Ingredients:
- 150g sweet potato, cubed
- 150g cauliflower florets
- 110g red onion, cut into wedges
- 30ml olive oil
- 3g garlic powder
- 3g dried oregano
- 3g sea salt
- 1g black pepper
- 170g uncooked quinoa, rinsed
- 480ml water
- 1g salt
- 45g tahini
- 15ml lemon juice
- 5ml maple syrup
- 3g garlic, minced
- 30ml warm water
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a large bowl, toss the cubed sweet potato, cauliflower, and red onion with olive oil, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper.
- Spread the vegetables onto a large rimmed baking sheet in a single layer, ensuring they aren't touching to prevent steaming.
- Roast for 20–25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the edges are mahogany-colored and the vegetables are fork-tender.
- Combine rinsed quinoa, water or vegetable broth, and salt in a saucepan.
- Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes.
- Remove from heat and let it sit, covered, for 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork.
- In a small jar or bowl, whisk together tahini, lemon juice, maple syrup, and minced garlic.
- Slowly whisk in warm water, one tablespoon at a time, until the dressing reaches a velvety, pourable consistency.
- Divide the fluffy quinoa into bowls, top with roasted vegetables, and drizzle with the tahini dressing.
