Chickpea Buddha Bowl - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 cup vegetable broth
    1/2 cup red quinoa
    1 3/4 cups Brussels sprouts
    1/4 cup cubed carrots
    1/4 cup peeled and cubed parsnips
    1/2 red onion, chopped
    2 teaspoons olive oil, divided
    1 (15 ounce) can chickpeas, drained and patted dry
    1 teaspoon ground turmeric
    Dressing:
    1/4 cup tahini
    2 tablespoons lemon juice
    1 tablespoon maple syrup
    5 tablespoons hot water
    1 avocado, mashed
Preparation
    Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
    Place vegetable broth and quinoa in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Simmer until quinoa is tender, about 15 minutes.
    Place Brussels sprouts, carrots, parsnips, and red onion on a baking sheet; drizzle with 1 teaspoon olive oil.
    Bake in the preheated oven until softened, about 10 minutes.
    Mix chickpeas with turmeric in a bowl. Heat remaining 1 teaspoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir chickpeas until browned, about 8 minutes.
    Mix tahini, lemon juice, and maple syrup in a bowl until well combined. Add hot water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until dressing is thin and smooth.
    Divide quinoa, roasted vegetables, chickpeas, and mashed avocado between 2 serving bowls. Drizzle 1 tablespoon dressing over each bowl.
