  • 2/cups Baby Spinach
  • 1/2 Apple (small, peeled and finely chopped)
  • 1 tbsp Red Onion (finely chopped)

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400ºF (204ºC) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, flipping halfway through, or until the cubes are cooked through and have browned on both sides.
  3. Meanwhile, cook the quinoa according to package directions.
