Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). In a large bowl, combine 1.5 cups quinoa, 1.5 cups cubed butternut squash, and 1 cup julienned carrots.
  2. Step 2: In a separate bowl, whisk 1 cup milk, 2 eggs, 1 tbsp butter, 1/4 cup flour, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp pepper until smooth. Pour over the vegetables and mix until evenly coated.
  3. Step 3: Transfer the mixture to a greased baking dish. Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden and bubbly, with a slight crust forming on top.
  4. Step 4: Let cool for 5 minutes before serving, optionally topped with a sprinkle of chopped parsley or fresh thyme.
