1

Place all the sliced veggies in a bowl and toss together with one teaspoon of canola oil and a little salt and pepper.

2

Transfer them to a baking sheet and place in a 400° F preheated oven to cook for 15-20 minutes.  Give them a toss on the pan halfway through so the veggies cook evenly.

3

Start cooking the lentils and quinoa.  Heat one tablespoon canola oil in a saucepan over medium high heat.  Add the onions and cook for a few minutes and then add the tomatoes and garlic and cook until everything is slightly softened, about three minutes.

4

Add the chipotle chili powder, oregano and cumin to the pot.

5

Followed by the quinoa, and 1 cup water and bring it to a boil. Cover with a lid, reduce the heat and simmer for 8-10 minutes.

6

Add the cooked lentils and more water if needed to the pot.  Continue to cook until quinoa is ready, another 8-10 minutes. When water is absorbed, turn off from heat, taste and add salt and pepper as needed.

7

Cook the tortilla bowls while the quinoa is cooking. Lightly spray your oven safe bowls and fit the tortilla down into the dish . As it cooks it will crisp up and maintain this shape. Bake in the oven until crispy, about 8-10 minutes.

8

When everything is ready, serve up the lentils and quinoa in the bowls topped with the roasted peppers and your favorite burrito toppings.

serve & enjoy!
