    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

    • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

    Directions

    • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easier cleanup.
    • Drain and rinse the canned chickpeas, then pat them dry using a clean kitchen towel to remove excess moisture.
    • In a mixing bowl, combine the chickpeas with olive oil, smoked paprika, ground cumin, garlic powder, and salt until evenly coated.
    • Spread the chickpeas onto the prepared baking sheet and roast in the oven for about 20 minutes until crispy.
    • Meanwhile, cook the quinoa by bringing vegetable broth to a boil, then adding quinoa. Cover and simmer for 15 minutes or until liquid is absorbed.
    • In a separate pan, heat olive oil over medium heat and sautĂ© the mixed vegetables until tender and slightly charred.
    • Once done, mix the roasted chickpeas with the sautĂ©ed vegetables and cooked quinoa. Drizzle with lemon juice before serving.

    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!
