Keen on Quinoa

This Quinoa, Sweet Potato and Feta Delight is easy to make and tailor-made for brisk fall evenings.
Quinoa-Sweet-Potato-and-Feta-Bowl

There are few things that can warm you up better during those first chilly nights of September than a warm bowl of quinoa with sweet potatoes, topped with a subtle hint of dressing and just the right amount of pumpkin seed crunch. 

The ingredient amounts of this recipe aren’t fixed – choose as much or as little of any ingredient as you’d like, which makes it especially convenient to prepare this dish for a few different people, like picky
family members.

This warm and nourishing, protein-rich bowl can be served warm or cold. Using warm quinoa and sweet potatoes, while keeping the rest of the ingredients cold, tastes the best but serving it salad-style is great, too. You can choose a few different dressings for the bowl, which will make it taste different every time! 

To roast sweet potatoes, quarter them first, then put in a preheated 400-degree oven for about 40 minutes, turning the potatoes
once halfway.
