Time 1h10m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup quinoa
8 tablespoons (1 stick) salted butter
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 large carrots, peeled, halved lengthwise and cut into 1-inch pieces
2 large parsnips, peeled, halved lengthwise and cut into 1-inch pieces
1/2 red onion, cut into large chunks
1/2 butternut squash, peeled, seeded and cut into large chunks
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Juice of 1 lemon
1/4 cup pine nuts

1 cup Parmesan shavings

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Prepare the quinoa according to the package directions. Set aside to cool.
  • In a small skillet over medium-low heat, melt the butter with the garlic. Turn off the heat and allow it to sit for 5 minutes.
  • Arrange the carrots, parsnips, red onion and squash on a large rimmed baking sheet. Pour over half of the garlic butter, sprinkle on some salt and pepper and toss to coat. Roast the vegetables, tossing occasionally, until they're nice and deep golden brown, 35 to 40 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.
  • Pour the other half of the garlic butter into a bowl (reserve the skillet for the pine nuts). Add the lemon juice and some salt and pepper and whisk.
  • Add the pine nuts to the reserved skillet, set over low heat and toast, tossing occasionally, until light golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Set aside.
  • To assemble the salad: Add the arugula to a large bowl, followed by the roasted vegetables, buttery dressing, quinoa, pine nuts and Parmesan shavings. Toss it all together and serve while still warm or at room temperature.

Categories     Vegetable     Side     Dinner     Apple     Carrot     Fall

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

½ teaspoon ground cardamom
½ teaspoon ground coriander
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon kosher salt
3 medium carrots--peeled, halved lengthwise and sliced on a bias into 1-inch pieces
1 medium apple--halved, cored and sliced into 1-inch cubes
1 medium red onion, halved and thinly sliced
1½ tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 cup quinoa, rinsed
Zest of ½ lemon plus 2 teaspoons lemon juice
¼ cup finely chopped flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat the oven to 425°. In a small bowl, stir together cardamom, coriander, pepper and ¾ teaspoon salt. In a 9--by-13-inch baking dish, add the carrots, apple, red onion and olive oil. Add the spice mixture and stir to combine. 2. In an 8- or 9-inch baking dish, add the rinsed quinoa and spread into an even layer. Place the quinoa and vegetables in the oven. Toast the quinoa until fragrant and golden, about 8 minutes, then pour 2 cups water over the quinoa and loosely cover the pan with a sheet of aluminum foil. Cook the quinoa until it uncoils and looks fluffy, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove the quinoa from the oven, fluff with a fork, re-cover with foil and set aside. 3. Meanwhile, continue to roast the vegetables, stirring occasionally, until the onions start to blacken around the edges and the carrots are tender, about 30 minutes total. 4. Transfer the quinoa to a serving dish. Stir in the remaining ¼ teaspoon salt, the lemon zest and lemon juice, then the parsley. Serve alongside the roasted vegetables.

OVEN-ROASTED CARROTS AND ONIONS



Oven-Roasted Carrots and Onions image

The dry heat of the oven caramelizes the natural sugars in vegetables, which brings about an amazing depth of flavor. Baby carrots vary in size depending on time of year and where they are grown, so check for doneness after 30 to 40 minutes.

SIMPLE SAVORY QUINOA



Simple Savory Quinoa image

A savory side dish, tasty yet simple, with carrots, celery, onions and quinoa. I always cut my veggies really small, more like mincing because I don't like chunky veggies. It is always optional to cut this small. This would probably taste great with rice as well.

QUINOA WITH ROASTED CORN AND PEPPERS



Quinoa With Roasted Corn and Peppers image

This is a great complement to TJW's Recipe#160252, or any grilled meats. Adapted from "How to Cook Everything" 10th Anniversary Edition by Mark Bittman. For the stock, chicken, beef or veggie works well.

Categories     Grains

Time 45m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 1/2 cups corn kernels (fresh is best, but defrosted frozen works well, too)
1/2 yellow bell pepper, chopped
salt, to taste
fresh ground black pepper, to taste
3/4 cup quinoa, rinsed and well-drained
1 1/2 cups stock (water can be used instead)
chopped fresh herb (to garnish, I prefer either chives, parsley, or cilantro)

Steps:

  • Heat oil over medium-high heat in a skillet with a lid. Once oil is hot, add the corn and yellow pepper. Season with salt and fresh-ground pepper, then cook, stirring occasionally, until veggies soften and corn begins to brown (10 minutes or so).
  • Add the quinoa and stir. Continue cooking for a couple minutes. When quinoa starts popping and getting toasted, add the stock or water and bring to a boil. Stir one more time, then cover and reduce heat to low. Cook covered and undisturbed for 15 minutes.
  • Uncover and check quinoa for doneness. If the grains are still hard, make sure there's still enough liquid to keep the bottom of the pan moist, cover and cook for another 5 minutes.
  • When the quinoa is ready, remove from the heat and taste for seasonings. Add more salt and pepper if needed, then add the chopped herbs for garnish. This can be served warm, or it can be allowed to cool to room temperature before serving.
