Tips:
- Choose firm and fresh vegetables for roasting. Avoid any vegetables that are bruised or wilted.
- Cut the vegetables into uniform sizes so that they cook evenly. Smaller vegetables will cook faster than larger ones, so adjust the cooking times accordingly.
- Toss the vegetables with olive oil, salt, and pepper before roasting. This will help them to brown and caramelize.
- Spread the vegetables in a single layer on a baking sheet. Overcrowding the pan will prevent the vegetables from cooking evenly.
- Roast the vegetables at a high temperature (400-450°F) for 20-30 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly browned.
- To make the quinoa, rinse it well before cooking. This will remove any saponins, which are bitter compounds that can give quinoa a soapy taste.
- Cook the quinoa according to the package directions. Once it is cooked, fluff it with a fork and let it cool slightly.
- Combine the roasted vegetables, quinoa, and any other desired ingredients in a bowl. Toss to combine and serve.
