Roasted Veggie Quinoa Bowl With Avocado Coconut Curry Sauce

My friend is moving to Ohio so we had a going away party for her, and I was asked to bring a vegetable dish; my friend is a foodie, so I knew that I could bring something different and she would appreciate it. I picked up all ingredients at Trader Joe’s in a rush, I’m always doing everything last minute, and I appreciate how easy that store makes it to put together an easy meal. This hearty Fall dish perfect for dinner, or a week of lunches.

Avocado is incorporated into this coconut curry sauce and features oven-roasted butternut squash, cauliflower and Brussels sprouts in this very large vegan quinoa bowl.

Tips: 1. Use a food processor to shave your Brussels sprouts to save money or buy a pre-shaved bag at Trader Joe’s. 2. Double the sauce to make it extra saucy
