Make

  1. Heat oven to 425F / 218C.

  2. Toss broccoli with cooking oil, balsamic vinegar, red pepper flakes, and some salt and pepper. Spread out on a sheet pan and roast for 20 minutes, shaking pan halfway through cooking. This makes enough for 2 nights; reserve half if making Tuesday's meal.

  3. Heat a skillet or saute pan over medium heat. Add olive oil and then onions. Saute until onions are very soft, 4 to 5 minutes.

  4. Add tomatoes, white wine, garlic, artichoke hearts, beans, and paprika to the pan, sauteing for another 3 to 5 minutes, until wine has mostly evaporated. Finish with lemon juice and parsley.

  5. If quinoa was made ahead, reheat in the microwave (remember to reserve half if making Wednesday's meal).

  6. Serve chickpea saute over quinoa. Enjoy with roasted broccoli.
