Ingredients
  

1 cup quinoa, rinsed

2 cups vegetable broth or water

1 medium zucchini, diced

1 red bell pepper, chopped

1 small red onion, diced

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1 cup sweet potato, peeled and cubed

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon paprika

1 teaspoon garlic powder

Salt and pepper to taste

1 avocado, sliced

Lemon wedges, for serving

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

    Prepare the Quinoa: In a medium pot, bring vegetable broth or water to a boil. Add rinsed quinoa, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes or until water is absorbed. Fluff with a fork and set aside.

      Roast the Veggies: On a large baking sheet, combine diced zucchini, red bell pepper, red onion, cherry tomatoes, and sweet potato. Drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss until veggies are well-coated.

        Bake: Spread the vegetables evenly on the baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through, until tender and slightly caramelized.

          Assemble the Bowls: In serving bowls, layer a generous scoop of quinoa on the bottom. Top with roasted veggies, and add sliced avocado on top.

            Garnish & Serve: Sprinkle with fresh parsley or cilantro, and serve with lemon wedges to squeeze over the bowls for an extra burst of flavor.
