Ingredients
-
1 ½ cups cauliflower florets
-
1 ½ cups broccoli florets
-
2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
-
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
-
1 teaspoon dried oregano
-
¼ teaspoon salt
-
¾ cup diced red bell pepper (1-inch)
-
¾ cup diced zucchini (1-inch)
-
2 teaspoons lemon zest
-
2 cups cooked tricolor quinoa, cooled
-
1 cup hummus
-
4 lemon wedges
-
1 medium avocado
Method
-
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Combine cauliflower, broccoli and garlic on a rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle with oil and sprinkle with oregano and salt; stir to coat. Roast for 10 minutes.
-
Add bell pepper and zucchini to the vegetables in the pan; stir to combine. Roast until the vegetables are crisp-tender and lightly browned, 10 to 15 minutes more. Sprinkle lemon zest over the vegetables; set aside to cool before assembling bowls.
-
Divide the roasted vegetables among 4 single-serving containers. Top each with 1/2 cup quinoa and 1/4 cup hummus and add a lemon wedge to each container. Seal the containers and refrigerate for up to 4 days. To serve, squeeze the lemon wedge over the bowl and top with one-fourth avocado, diced.
