1(14.5) can of ChickPeas drained, rinsed and dried
1 Cup Quinoa
2 Cups Water
½ Tsp Salt
2 Tbsp Toasted Sesame Seeds

½ Tsp Dry Mustard
1 Tsp Smoked Paprika
½ Tsp Garlic Powder
½ Tsp both Salt and Pepper
3 tbsp Olive Oil
1 Tbsp Red Wine Vinegar

Tahini Dressing-
2 tbsp Tahini
1 Tbsp Coconut Aminos or Soy Sauce
1 Tbsp Lemon Juice
1 Tsp Maple Syrup
¼ Cup Warm Water

Directions-
Preheat your oven to 425
Measure your dry spices in a small bowl. Add in olive oil and red wine vinegar and whisk until incorporated.
Start by peeling and chopping all your vegetables. Try to make them as uniformed as possible so they will cook evenly.
Place your Beets, Squash, Brussels, Yellow Potato and drained and dried Chickpeas on a large 18X13 Baking sheet.
You can either have all the veggies mixed or if you're looking for that perfect bowl presentation I recommend putting each vegetable in a row.
Pour mixture evenly over your vegetables and mix until well coated.
Place your Baking sheet in the oven for 30 minutes.
While the vegetables are cooking, make quinoa and dressing.
Take your 1 cup of dry quinoa and rinse off thoroughly in a fine mesh strainer. This removes the bitter taste.
Next pour the quinoa, 2 cups of water and salt into a small saucepan. Bring to a boil and then reduce to a simmer uncovered for around 10 minutes or until all of the water is absorbed.
Pull off the heat and cover it for 5 minutes. Remove cover and fluff with fork.
For the dressing add all of your ingredients except water into a mason jar. Whisk together.
Incorporate the warm water at the end whisking until it becomes smooth.
Finally , set out bowls. Fill the bottom with cooked quinoa.
Next layer the vegetables on top of the quinoa. Drizzle Dressing on top and garnish with sesame seeds.
Enjoy!
