Ingredients

6 servings
  • 1 large red bell pepper, (seeded and chopped)
  • 1 medium zucchini, (chopped)
  • 1 large carrot, (peeled and chopped)
  • 1 large shallot, (peeled and chopped)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, (to taste)
  • 1 cup tri-color quinoa
  • 2 cups fat free chicken or vegetable broth
  • 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1½ tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon oregano
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper, (to taste)
  • 1 can garbanzo beans, (drained and rinsed)

Steps

  1. Preheat the oven to 425℉.

  2. Place veggies in a bowl and toss with the olive oil, salt and pepper. Place veggies on a baking sheet and roast for 30 minutes, or until softened and slightly charred. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool.

  3. Rinse the quinoa well in a fine sieve.

  4. In a medium saucepan bring the chicken broth to a boil. Add the rinsed quinoa, cover and reduce to a simmer. Cook for 20 minutes, or until the liquid is completely absorbed.

  5. In a small dish, whisk together the remaining ingredients, except garbanzo beans.

  6. In a medium to large bowl, toss the roasted vegetables with the cooked quinoa, garbanzo beans and dressing. Serve immediately as warm, or cover and refrigerate and serve cold at a later time.
