Categories     Main

Time 1h10m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 23

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 small onion, diced ( about 1 ½ cups)
2 small zucchini ( or sub summer squash) diced, about 3 cups
1 ear corn- lightly charred over gas burner ( sauteed is fine too)
2 garlic cloves- minced
½ jalapeno - finely chopped ( optional)
1 ½ cups water
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon chile powder
1 cup rinsed quinoa
½-1 cup cheese ( feta, goat, mozzarella balls, etc...)
1 pound cherry tomatoes, cut in half - or regular tomatoes, big diced
¼ cup chopped fresh Italian parsley
¼ cup sliced onion
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon lemon or lime juice
generous pinch salt and pepper
½ cup plain yogurt, or sour cream
squeeze lime
pinch salt
½ teaspoon smoked paprika
Fresh Parsley or cilantro for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400F
  • In a 10 inch skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add onion and zucchini and saute for 6 minutes, stirring often. Add jalapeño ( if using) and garlic, turn heat to medium and continue cooking until zucchini is tender about 4 more minutes.
  • Char the shucked corn (still on the cob) placing it directly over a gas burner, using tongs to rotate until blackened in spots. (Alternately, cut corn off the cob and add to skillet and saute with zucchini.)
  • Add charred corn to zucchini. Add water, salt and spices. Stir, bring to a boil, then add quinoa. Stir once. Top with cheese, cover with lid or foil and place in the oven for 35-40 minutes. For the last 5 minutes, remove the lid, and let the cheese get a little melty and golden.
  • While baking, make the Tomato salad: Place everything in a medium bowl and toss to combine.
  • Make Smoked Paprika Yogurt (mix ingredients together in a small bowl). Alternatively, you could simply serve with a dollop of plain yogurt or sour cream (or leave it off and keep it vegan)

QUINOA WITH CORN AND ZUCCHINI



Quinoa With Corn and Zucchini image

Sweet corn and nutty-tasting quinoa make a nice combination that is also nutritionally rich. Quinoa has more iron than any other grain, and it's a good source of manganese, magnesium, phosphorus and copper. It's also a good source of protein.

Categories     side dish

Time 1h

Yield Serves six to eight

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup regular or red quinoa
3 cups water, chicken stock or vegetable stock
1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1/2 small onion, finely chopped
1 to 2 garlic cloves (to taste), minced
Kernels from 1 ear corn
1 medium zucchini, cut in small dice
2 to 4 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 to 1/2 cup crumbled queso fresco or feta (optional)

Steps:

  • Place the quinoa in a bowl, and cover with cold water. Let sit five minutes. Drain through a strainer, and rinse until the water runs clear.
  • Bring the water or stock to a simmer in a medium saucepan. Heat another medium saucepan or lidded skillet over medium-high heat, and add the quinoa. Toast, stirring, until the grains have separated and begin to smell fragrant. Add the water or stock and salt. It should come to a boil quickly. Reduce the heat to low, cover and simmer 15 to 20 minutes, until the quinoa is tender and translucent and each grain displays a little thread. Drain and return to the pan. Cover the pan with a clean dish towel, replace the lid and allow to sit undisturbed for 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium heat, and add the onion. Cook, stirring, until tender, about five minutes, and add the garlic, corn and zucchini. Season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring, until the zucchini is tender and translucent and the corn tender, five to eight minutes. Stir in the quinoa and toss together. Heat through, add the herbs and serve with a little crumbled queso fresco or feta sprinkled on top if desired.
