2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 large head of broccoli, stalks and florets coarsely chopped
Kosher salt
freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 cup raw pine nuts
pinch of red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/5 cup feta cheese, crumbled
1/4 cup cilantro, chopped

1
Preheat oven to 450F.

Rinse quinoa thoroughly in a fine mesh strainer for about two minutes to get rid of some of the bitterness. Drain well.

Meanwhile, toss broccoli with remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Roast for 15-20 minutes, until broccoli has browned a bit on the edges and is tender.
4
In a small saucepan, melt butter over low heat. Add pine nuts and cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until butter is browned and pine nuts are toasted. Remove from heat, let cool slightly, and stir in red pepper flakes and lemon juice.
5
When quinoa is cooked, fluff slightly with a fork. Toss with broccoli, brown butter sauce and pine nuts, feta, and cilantro.
