Celestial Quasar Quinoa Bowl with Roasted Vegetables
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 1 cup quinoa
- 2 cups vegetable broth
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 yellow bell pepper, sliced
- 1 small zucchini, sliced
- 1 small red onion, sliced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a large bowl, toss the cherry tomatoes, red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, zucchini, and red onion with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, dried oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
- Spread the vegetables in a single layer on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly charred.
