GREEK QUINOA BOWLS #VEGETARIAN #HEALTHYFOOD
At whatever point I solicit what plans you'd like more from, solid vegan eats is consistently the most prevalent reaction. I think it's implied that I'm excessively glad to oblige; that is the thing that this insane little blog of mine is about!
A large number of the dishes I make can be matched nearby your preferred protein for those favoring the t-rex way of life or joined with significantly more veggie-driven eats for a vegan feast.
Is there something different you'd like to see a greater amount of while I'm grinding away? Tell me in the remarks segment, by email, or hit me up via web-based networking media. I'd love to get your feedback so I would custom be able to accommodate my plans to my great perusers!
We found a stunning Mediterranean eatery here in Pensacola as of late called Hummus, and it's the most delectable little gap in the divider! Paul and I were truly swooning with each chomp, enthusiastically arranging our following visit before our feast was even mostly wrapped up. A couple of days after the fact, when I at long last pushed through the leftovers of the pile of tabouleh and hummus I brought home, I was left with somewhat of a nourishment aftereffect.
I needed more, and I would not like to go out to get it!
This serving of mixed greens met up in less than 15 minutes and was the ideal method to fulfill my hankering for something radiantly Greek. It's part plate of mixed greens, part side dish and is certain to be a normal in my home, and ideally yours as well! Fill me in regarding whether you get an opportunity to attempt it!
Ingredients :
- 1 cup quinoa
- 1.5 cups water
- 1 cup chopped green bell pepper
- 1 cup chopped red bell pepper
- 1/3 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 2-3 TBSP apple cider vinegar
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1-2 TBSP fresh parsley
TASTY EXTRAS:
- Hummus
- Pita wedges
- Olives
- Fresh tomatoes
- Sliced or chopped avocado
- Lemon wedges
Instructions :
- First rinse and drain your quinoa using a mesh strainer or sieve.
- Bring a medium saucepan to medium heat and lightly toast the quinoa to remove any excess water. Stir as it toasts for just a few minutes. This step is optional but really adds to the nuttiness and fluff factor of the quinoa!
- Next add your water, set burner to high, and bring to a boil.
- Once boiling, reduce heat to low and simmer, covered with the lid slightly ajar, for 12-13 minutes or until quinoa is fluffy and the liquid has been absorbed.
- While the quinoa cooks, chop and prep the remaining ingredients and whisk together your dressing ingredients.
- Snag your now-fluffy quinoa from the pot and give it a little fluff with a fork.
- For a chilled salad, you can pop the quinoa in the fridge for a few minutes prior to adding your veggies or simply let it cool on the countertop for a few minutes for a room temperature quinoa bowl. Totally up to you!
- For the super simple vinaigrette, whisk together olive oil, apple cider vinegar, salt, and pepper. How easy was that!? Pour over your quinoa bowl and toss with a pair of forks or salad servers and dig. on. in.
- Add any additional salt and pepper to taste, if desired.
Recipe Notes :
- For a speedy salad, do all your prepwork while your quinoa cooks. This way you'll only have one ridiculously step left after your quinoa is fluffy and ready to go. This salad can be made in advance to enjoy for weekday lunches or as a side dish for dinner. It's great room temperature and also wonderful chilled, so feel free to enjoy either way! As written, the recipe makes two entree-sized quinoa bowls or four sassy side dishes. Feel free to double the recipe if you're feeding a crowd!
- Prepared to make these uber simple greek quinoa bowls? Breathtaking!
