One Skillet Curried Quinoa With Butternut Squash Chickpeas Food

ONE POT QUINOA WITH BUTTERNUT SQUASH

Steps:

• Warm the oil in a large, nonstick pot over medium-high heat. Once warm, add the rosemary sprig and minced garlic; sauté for around 60 seconds, until the garlic is fragrant. Add the butternut squash to the pot and sauté for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• add the quinoa and vegetable broth to the pan and stir well. Then, sprinkle the chickpeas on top of the quinoa mixture - they won't become fully submerged in the liquid, but this is ok. Increase the heat to high until everything comes to a boil; then, reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and cook for 20-23 minutes.
• Turn off the heat and let sit for 5 minutes before opening the pot and fluffing with a fork. Serve as desired; I recommend topping with some Tahini Dressing. Leftovers will keep in the fridge for up to 5 days, or can be frozen and defrosted as needed for up to 2 months.

ONE POT VEGETABLE CHICKPEA CURRY

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large saucepan or dutch oven. Add the onion and garlic and saute until fragrant, about 3 minutes. Add the squash, broccoli, pepper, and chickpeas, and saute for another 2 minutes.
• Pour in the tomatoes, coconut milk, broth, and spices and season with salt and pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, turn down to a simmer and cover, cooking until squash is tender about 30 minutes.
• When ready to serve, stir in kale (if using) and transfer into bowls. Serve with coconut lime quinoa and garnish with cilantro.

QUINOA WITH ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH

Steps:

• Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 400°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and set aside.
• Place the squash in a medium bowl and add 3 tablespoons of the oil, the thyme and 2 teaspoons of salt and season with pepper to taste. Mix until the squash is well coated. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet and spread squash out into a single layer. Roast until a paring knife slides into the squash with no resistance, about 30 minutes, stirring about halfway through the cooking time. Put the pistachios on a small baking sheet and toast until fragrant, about 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, rinse the quinoa in cold water in a fine-mesh strainer. Bring the broth or water to a boil and stir in the quinoa. Simmer, uncovered, until a small white spiral becomes visible in each grain, about 9 minutes. Drain the quinoa and transfer it to a medium bowl. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, the pistachios, cranberries, vinegar, 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper to taste.
• Place the spinach in a large mixing bowl and toss with the hot squash until slightly wilted. Add the quinoa mixture and toss again. Serve warm or at room temperature.

ONE-SKILLET CURRIED QUINOA WITH BUTTERNUT SQUASH & CHICKPEAS

Steps:

• Add the olive oil to a large pot over medium heat. When hot, add the onion and saute until translucent and tender, 3-4 minutes. Stir in the curry powder, ginger, turmeric, and cardamom. Sauté for 30 seconds, until fragrant, stirring constantly. Add the coconut milk, water, quinoa, and 1 teaspoon salt, scraping the bottom of the pot to remove any stuck bits. Bring to a boil and then lower heat to a simmer. Cover and cook for 15 minutes, then stir in the frozen vegetables and chickpeas. Return the lid to the pot and cook for 5-15 minutes more, or until the quinoa is tender and most of the liquid has been absorbed. After the quinoa is done, turn off the heat and let sit, covered, until the vegetables and chickpeas are warmed through, 5-6 minutes. Stir in the lemon juice. Taste and add additional salt if desired. Garnish with parsley and serve. Read more at http://ohmyveggies.com/one-pot-curried-quinoa-with-butternut-squash-and-chickpeas/#fe4TIrs0vDP0oHZA.99
