Quinoa and Roasted Vegetables

Quinoa and roasted vegetables

Quick and simple to make, use any veg that you have. Quinoa is gluten free, and a complete protein containing Magnesium, phosphorus and Iron, defined by the UN as a superfood.

What to do:

I used courgettes, onion, green pepper, garlic gloves (skin taken off) and tomatoes but you can use any vegetables that you have.

Cut the veg into chunks and put in an oven proof dish with some sea salt and olive oil.

Put in the oven at 200 degrees for about 30 mins or until you see the veg is roasted.
Meanwhile, put the quinoa into a pan - one cup of quinoa to two cups of water - a teaspoon of sea salt and bring to boil.
Reduce heat, allow to simmer until you see the little tails separate from the quinoa, it will have doubled in size.
Put on a lid and turn off the heat. Keep the lid on so that the quinoa can steam and soak up the remaining water.
fluff the quinoa with a fork. Then add it to the roasted veg. Mix.
Stir in half a lemon juice, a drizzle of olive oil and some fresh herbs eg. parsley, coriander, basil...
That's it. Enjoy.
