Serves:
Ingredients
- 1 cup quinoa
- 2 cups water
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 yellow bell pepper, sliced
- 1 zucchini, sliced
- 1 red onion, sliced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 8 ounces halloumi cheese, sliced
- 2 cups mixed greens
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
- Juice of 1 lemon
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
-
Rinse the quinoa under cold water. In a medium saucepan, bring the water to a boil. Add the quinoa, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let sit for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork.
-
While the quinoa is cooking, spread the sliced bell peppers, zucchini, and red onion on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat the vegetables evenly. Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and slightly charred.
-
Heat a griddle pan over medium heat. Add the halloumi slices and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden and crispy.
-
In a large bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, roasted vegetables, mixed greens, parsley, lemon juice, and balsamic vinegar. Toss well to coat everything evenly.
-
Divide the salad among four plates and top each plate with the griddled halloumi slices.
-
Serve immediately and enjoy!
