Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare Quinoa

Rinse the quinoa under cold water in a fine mesh strainer to remove any bitterness.

2

Cook Quinoa

In a medium pot, combine the rinsed quinoa and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes or until the quinoa is fluffy and water is absorbed.

3

Sauté Vegetables

While the quinoa is cooking, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.

4

Add Zucchini and Bell Pepper

Chop the zucchini and bell pepper into bite-sized pieces. Add them to the skillet and sauté for about 5-7 minutes until they are tender.

5

Add Spinach and Cherry Tomatoes

Add the cherry tomatoes and spinach to the skillet, stirring occasionally. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the spinach is wilted.

6

Combine Everything

Once the quinoa is cooked, fluff it with a fork and add it to the skillet with the sautéed vegetables. Mix well.

7

Season

Season the mixture with salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. Stir to combine, then remove from heat.

8

Add Feta

Crumble feta cheese over the top of the quinoa and vegetable mixture and gently fold it in.

Serve

Serve warm as a main dish or side. Enjoy your healthy and delicious quinoa bowl!
