Description

Ingredients

• 1 lb brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
• 3 cups butternut squash, peeled and cubed (~1 small squash)
• 1 cup quinoa, rinsed
• 2 cups vegetable broth (or chicken broth if not making vegetarian)
• 2 cups chopped kale
• 1 tbsp adobe sauce (from a can of chipotle peppers)
• 1 tbsp maple syrup
• 3 tsp coconut oil, divided
• ½ tsp smoked paprika
• ½ tsp garlic powder
• ¼ tsp sea salt
• Optional toppings: chipotle pepper, avocado, hemp seeds, pine nuts, goat cheese
• **Honey Dijon Vinaigrette**
• 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
• 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
• 2 tsp honey

Directions

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Prepare two baking sheets.
• Toss brussels in adobe sauce, maple syrup and 1 tsp coconut oil. Spread evenly on one baking sheet.
• Toss butternut squash in smoked paprika, garlic powder and 2 tsp coconut oil. Spread evenly on separate baking sheet. Place both baking sheets in the oven and roast for ~20-25 minutes, stirring once halfway through.
• In the meantime, prepare quinoa by combining quinoa and vegetable (or chicken) broth in a medium-sized saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, cover and cook ~15 minutes, or until all broth is absorbed. Mix in chopped kale (kale will wilt once it is mixed with hot quinoa).
• Prepare vinaigrette by combining ingredients in a small bowl and whisking until well-combined.
• Prepare bowls by adding quinoa/kale mix and roasted vegetables in a bowl or on a plate. Drizzle contents with vinaigrette and add additional toppings if desired. Great served hot or cold!
