- 1 lb butternut squash, cut in a 1-inch dice
- 1 cup purple potatoes, cut into a 1-inch dice or left whole if small enough
- olive oil
- salt
- pepper
- 1 cup freekah
- 1/2 cup quinoa
- 1/2 teaspoon vegetable stock base or bouillon*
- 1 shallot, minced
- 2-3 tablespoons pine nuts
- 3 tablespoons parsley
- 1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a large cast iron skillet, or a baking sheet, place the chopped butternut squash and potatoes. Drizzle liberally with olive oil, and toss with salt and pepper. Roast for 20-30 minutes until tender and nicely browned.
- 2. While the vegetables are roasting, cover the freekah with 3 cups of water in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and cook, about 20-30 minutes until desired tenderness is reached.
- 3. In another small pot, bring 1 cup of water mixed with 1 teaspoon vegetable bouillon to a boil. Add the quinoa, bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, cover and cook for 15 minutes, or until all the water is absorbed. Set aside.
- 4. In a large bowl, toss together the freekah, quinoa, minced shallot, pine nuts, and parsley. Season to taste. Add the roasted vegetables and toss to combine.
