Roasted Veggie Quinoa

Roasted Veggie Quinoa

1 cup uncooked quinoa
1 can vegetable broth
2 large sweet potatoes peeled and cubed
5 cups of broccoli florets chopped  (2 heads of broccoli)
1 large sweet onion chopped
3 tbs Tuscan herb Fustini's olive oil
1 tsp Tuscan herb spice to taste
1/2 tsp crushed red pepper to taste (if you want heat)
1 tsp Fustini's Green Chili olive oil (if you want heat)

Preheat oven 400 degrees.
Coat large cookie sheet pan with tuscan herb oil. Chop vegetables and put on pan. Bake 40 minutes and stir every 10 min. **I cooked my sweet potatoes in the microwave already chopped for 10 minutes so soften them up first to reduce cooking time in oven. Cook quinoa on stove according to directions but use vegetable broth instead of water. Mix vegetables, quinoa, and spice (if you want to use it) together on pan and serve immediately.
