- While broccoli is roasting, cook quinoa according to package instructions, using 3/4 cup water for 12 minutes. Allow to cool slightly before tossing with roasted broccoli in a large bowl.
- Add remaining 1/4 cup dressing and pine nuts to the broccoli quinoa mixture, tossing to coat evenly, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Place in a serving bowl and garnish with crumbled cheese and pomegranate seeds.
