Instructions
For The Quinoa:
- Place your quinoa in a sieve and rinse under cold water for 1-2 minutes. Place quinoa, water and salt in a small saucepan and heat over medium to high heat.
- Once the quinoa is boiling, reduce heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes, until the water has absorbed.
- Use a fork to fluff up the quinoa.
For The Roast Vegetables:
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Place the beetroot in a small bowl and add a dash of olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Place in a baking tray and bake for 40-45 minutes.
- Repeat the same step with the carrot and onion, and bake in the oven for 30 minutes.
- Finally, repeat again with the zucchini, and place in the oven for 15 minutes. You can put the zucchini on top of the carrots and onion.
Assemble the Salad:
- Add your spinach/baby kale/arugula to a large salad bowl. Top with the cooked quinoa and roast vegetables.
- Finish up by scattering the pine nuts and feta onto the salad and drizzle with the balsamic glaze.
