Categories     Main Course     Salad

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 22

1 cup quinoa (washed and drained)
1 pinch salt
1 1/4 cups boiling filtered water
2 tbsp olive oil (extra virgin)
1 tsp ground coriander
1/2 tsp ground cumin
2 tbsp raw pumpkin seeds
6 sprigs fresh oregano (leaves)
1 cup plain Greek yogurt (full fat)
1 lemon (juiced)
1/2 tsp salt
1 tbsp minced shallot
2 tbsp minced fresh herbs (dill or parsley)
1/4 whole red onion (sliced thinly)
2 Persian cucumbers (sliced thinly)
1 tsp salt
1 tbsp red wine vinegar
1 tsp red pepper flakes
1/2 cup kalamata olives (preferably with peppers (and no pits))
1/2 cup hummus (plain or roasted red pepper)
pita chips
2 oz feta in brine

Steps:

  • In a small pot, toast the quinoa over medium heat until dry and nutty smelling. Add salt and boiling water, quickly covering with a lid.
  • Simmer, covered, for 15 minutes. Turn off the heat and let sit, covered, for 5 more minutes. Remove lid and fluff quinoa with a fork, draining excess water with a strainer.

Spread the quinoa on top and leave to get crispy for 5 at least minutes. Scrape under the quinoa with a spatula and flip over to crisp the other side. Top with a sprinkle of fresh oregano leaves.
  • Add all the yogurt ingredients to a small bowl and stir with a spoon until smooth and creamy.
  • Add all the quick pickle ingredients to a medium bowl and toss around a bit. Let sit for at least 15 minutes to pickle.

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit with racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven. Line two large, rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Divide the eggplant, zucchini and yellow squash between the two baking sheets. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil and toss. Add a little more if necessary; you want enough to lightly coat the vegetables. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast until the veggies are softened and beginning to brown, about 20 to 30 minutes. Set the roasted vegetables aside to cool.
  • To cook the quinoa, combine the uncooked quinoa with 2/3 cup water in a small saucepan. Bring to boil over medium-high heat, then cover and reduce heat to low. Simmer until the water is absorbed, about 15 minutes, then remove from heat and let the quinoa steam with the lid on for 5 minutes. Remove lid, fluff the quinoa with a fork and set aside.
  • To toast the pine nuts, cook them in a small skillet over medium heat, stirring frequently, until they’re turning lightly golden and fragrant, about 5 to 10 minutes. Be sure to keep an eye on them so they don’t burn. Transfer to a bowl to cool.
