Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large bowl, toss the red kuri squash and red onion with olive oil, smoked paprika, cinnamon, cumin, chili flakes, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.

Step 3

Spread the vegetables in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Roast for 25 minutes.

Step 4

Drizzle the maple syrup and apple cider vinegar over the partially roasted vegetables, toss gently, and return to the oven for another 10 minutes, until caramelized and tender.

Step 5

While the squash roasts, steam or sauté the chopped kale until just wilted, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 6

To serve, divide cooked quinoa (if using) among four bowls. Top with roasted squash, onions, and wilted kale.

Step 7

Garnish each bowl with roasted pumpkin seeds, chopped cilantro, and a squeeze of fresh lime.

Zusatztipps für die Zubereitung

Ensure the oven is fully preheated to 400°F (200°C) before roasting to achieve that perfect caramelization. Using parchment paper on your baking sheet is essential for easy cleanup after roasting with maple syrup.

Varianten und Anpassungen

If you prefer a softer green, you can substitute baby spinach for kale. For extra protein, consider adding cooked chickpeas or grilled tofu. For a fully vegan bowl, ensure the quinoa is cooked in vegetable broth for added depth of flavor.

Serviervorschläge

Serve this bowl warm with a final squeeze of fresh lime to brighten the spices. It pairs exceptionally well with a crisp white wine like Sauvignon Blanc, which complements the sweet and earthy notes of the squash.
