A big bowl of deliciousness with a creamy tahini drizzle.

This is such a gorgeous dish full of flavour and colour.

The tahini recipe gives this dish such a cheesy flavour and creamy texture, it really is a good one.

Takes no time at all and doesn't require any fancy ingredients.

6. Whilst you are waiting for you quinoa and veggies to cook, you can prepare the tahini dressing.

8. Place quinoa in serving bowls, top with roasted veggies and drizzle over the tahini dressing. Serve with a wedge of lemon and enjoy!!

Tips

Ensure you chop harder veggies such as butternut squash into smaller pieces so you can roast them all together and they cook simultaneously.

Play around with the veggies, use what you have available!

Use cold water to thin out your tahini dressing!
