Steps:
- Roast the squash:.
- Cut squash in half (pierce and microwave for a minute first to make it easier to cut). Scoop and seeds and pulp and discard (or reserve seeds for roasting later, yummy!).
- Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper, cumin, and nutmeg.
- Put cut side down on a baking pan and bake at 400 degrees for 30-50 minutes (depends on size, should be soft and slightly browned).
- Make the quinoa:.
- Put 1/2 cup of quinoa into 1 cup of water. Season with salt, cumin, and coriander seeds (optional). Bring water to boil. Reduce to simmer and cover until water is absorbed, around 15 minutes.
- Make the veggies:.
- Saute onions, garlic, ginger, carrot, celery and pepper (and/or other assorted veggies to taste). Season with salt, pepper, cumin, paprika, cinammon and orange juice concentrate. Cook until desired veggie tenderness.
- Assemble:.
- Scoop some quinoa into the squash half and top with veggie mixture. Top with some cilantro leaves and/or toasted almonds if desired.
- Enjoy!

[email protected]This recipe was a bit too time-consuming for me. I ended up roasting the butternut squash and cooking the quinoa separately. It still turned out well, but it took a lot longer.
