Ingredients
  

1 medium zucchini, sliced into half-moons

1 large red bell pepper, diced

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1 medium red onion, sliced into wedges

1 cup Brussels sprouts, halved

3 tablespoons olive oil

4 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1 teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon black pepper

1 cup cooked quinoa (or other grain of your choice)

Fresh basil leaves for garnish

Optional: crumbled feta cheese or goat cheese for topping

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

    Prepare the Vegetables: In a large mixing bowl, combine the zucchini, red bell pepper, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and Brussels sprouts.

      Season the Veggies: In a separate small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Pour this dressing over the cut vegetables and toss well to ensure even coating.

        Roast the Veggies: Spread the seasoned vegetables in a single layer on a large baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.

          Prepare the Bowls: While the veggies are roasting, prepare your grain (quinoa or other) according to package instructions.

            Assemble the Bowls: In serving bowls, start with a base of cooked quinoa. Top with a generous portion of roasted vegetables.

              Garnish and Serve: Finish with fresh basil leaves and, if desired, sprinkle with crumbled feta cheese or goat cheese. Drizzle with a bit more balsamic vinegar if you like!
