Quinoa with Roasted Vegetables, Pine Nuts & Preserved Lemon.

Ingredients:
2 cups quinoa, cooked as per instructions. ( I cook mine in a rice cooker, never failed yet )
1/2 Red Onion
1 Capsicum
1 Zucchini
1/2 small Butternut Pumpkin
1/2 Red Capsicum
100 gm Pine Nuts
Handful flat leaf Parsley (fresh)
Handful Coriander (fresh)
3 cloves Garlic
2 tbsp Moroccan spice mix
Olive oil to drizzle over vegetables
Juice of 1/2 lemon
2 tsp preserved lemon ( recipe on my blog)

Method:
1. Prepare Quinoa as per packet ( I just bought the Coles Organic brand)

2. Turn on over to 180 deg c to preheat.

3. Chop all vegetables to the same size so they cook at the same rate in the oven. Pop in an oven proof dish & drizzle with Olive oil.

4. Bake for approx 25 mins. ( check after 20 mins )

5. Toast the pine nuts in a fry pan until golden.

6. Finely chop the preserved lemon ( zest only)

7. Pop the cooked Quinoa into a large bowl. Gently stir in the roasted vegetables, lemon & squeeze the lemon over the top.

8. Sprinkle over the fresh herbs.

9. Serve on a beautiful platter & enjoy!

Will keep for a couple of days & can be eaten cold too! Perfect side salad for any BBQ meats.
