This is one of those super easy perfect sides, with the all versatile Quinoa. It's nutritious, protein rich, fiber loaded and packed with Vitamin B. It's a true superfood!
Start by cutting up one small zucchini, one medium red pepper and about 1/2 cup of red onion. I slice them lengthwise into strips.
Start with a hot skillet with 1 tbsp of extra virgin olive oil.
Add the zucchini, red pepper and red onion. Saute them intermittently for about 10 to 15 minutes. You want the vegetables to roast, so you will have some char.
Once the vegetables are ready, add the garlic, sauté for about 1 minute or so, add the cooked quinoa and mix throughly.
Quickly remove from heat and place in a bowl.
Add some salt, pepper, several dill fronds and sprinkle with Feta cheese.
Serve warm or at room tempature.
