Wowee.. this dinner was sooo good! And I really have to pat myself on the back. I literally just thought of things I liked and combined them (based on what I had in the house!)!!! The main inspiration for this was the head of cauliflower and 3 heads of broccoli that I needed to cook. So, let's got on with it so you can make this yummy goodness for you and your family.
Step 1.
Preheat your oven to 425F. Chop up and wash cauliflower and broccoli. Then place on a roasting pan (I am in love with my Pampered Chef stoneware bar pan). Spray with extra virgin olive oil and then sprinkle with seasonings. Roast for 25 min.
Step 2.
Chop up one yellow onion and sauté with 1 minced garlic clove and sprinkle with seasoning. (Note, I made a double batch, so this is 2 onions!)
Step 3. and 4.
Meanwhile, cook your quinoa according to package directions, but use chicken broth instead of water. In sauté pan, push onions to the side and add in ground turkey. (again, I was doing a double batch, so that is a little more than 2 lbs in the picture!)
Step 5.
Continue cooking quinoa and turkey onion mix and don't forget to take out your veggies once they are done! Change oven temp to 350F.
Step 6.
Once quinoa and turkey are done, mix together with parmesan and 1/2 the mozzarella in a casserole dish.
Step 7.
Add other 1/2 mozzarella on top. Bake for 15 min.
And THIS is what happens after it is done! SO GOOD!
1 lbs. lean ground turkey
1 yellow onion, chopped
1 garlic clove, minced1 head cauliflower, washed and chopped into florets
2-3 heads broccoli, washed and chopped into florets

Preheat your oven to 425F. Place washed and chopped broccoli and cauliflower on a roasting pan. Spray with extra virgin olive oil and then sprinkle with seasonings. Roast for 25 min. Sauté chopped onion with minced garlic clove and sprinkle with Italian seasoning.
Meanwhile, cook your quinoa according to package directions (boil 2 cups chicken broth with 1 cup dry quinoa. Once it is boiling, cover and turn down to simmer for 15 min.)
In sauté pan, push onions to the side and add in ground turkey. Once turkey, quinoa, and broccoli and cauliflower are all finished cooking, turn oven to 350F and then combine all ingredients into a casserole dish. Gently stir in parmesan cheese and 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella. Add the rest of the mozzarella on top. Bake for 15 minutes.
