1 butternut squash (about 1 1/2 pounds), peeled, havled crosswise, and seeded

QUINOA POWER BOWLS WITH BUTTERNUT SQUASH AND TAHINI SAUCE



Quinoa Power Bowls with Butternut Squash and Tahini Sauce image

One of my go-to meals during the week is a grain bowl filled with vegetables; I especially love it because I can switch up the produce with the seasons. This autumnal version is extra delicious because it has a good balance of sweetness from the butternut squash, tartness from the dried cranberries and a savory nuttiness from the tahini sauce (which I seriously put on everything).

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup quinoa
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 small butternut squash (about 1 pound) peeled and cut into 3/4-inch cubes
1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced
3 cups coarsely chopped kale (about 2 1/2 ounces or 1/2 bunch)
1/4 cup tahini
1 clove garlic, grated
1/2 lemon, juiced
1 tablespoon honey
1/2 cup dried cranberries
1/2 cup roasted pecans, coarsely chopped

Steps:

  • Rinse the quinoa in a fine-mesh sieve under running water, then drain. Transfer to a medium saucepan; add 1 3/4 cups water and 1 teaspoon salt and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce to a simmer, cover and cook until the water is absorbed, about 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat and cook until it browns and smells nutty, about 3 minutes. Add the squash, onion and 1 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until the squash is golden brown and tender, 10 to 12 minutes.
  • While the squash cooks, make the tahini sauce: Whisk together the tahini, garlic, lemon juice, honey, 1 1/2 tablespoons water, 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper, to taste, in a medium bowl until smooth. Set aside.
  • Once the squash is golden and tender, add the kale to the skillet and cook, stirring, until the kale is slightly wilted, about 1 minute.
  • Transfer the cooked quinoa and vegetables to a large bowl. Stir in the dried cranberries and pecans. Serve warm or cold with the tahini sauce.

QUINOA WITH ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 1h

Yield 4-6 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

One (2-pound) butternut squash, peeled, seeded, and cut into 3/4-inch chunks (about 3 cups)
5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves, roughly chopped
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
¼ cup shelled pistachios
1½ cups quinoa
4 cups vegetable broth or water
¼ cup dried cranberries
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
3 ounces baby spinach

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.
