    Ingredients

    • 1.5 cups canned chickpeas

    • 2 tablespoons olive oil

    • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika

    • 1 teaspoon ground cumin

    • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

    • 0.5 teaspoon salt

    • 4 cups mixed vegetables like bell peppers and zucchini

    • 1 cup quinoa

    • 2 cups vegetable broth

    Directions

    • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easier cleanup.

    • Spread the chickpeas onto the prepared baking sheet and roast in the oven for about 20 minutes until crispy.

    Tip of the Day

    “Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

    Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!
