sweet pepper salad

  • Author: cassidyeats

Ingredients

Scale
  • bag of sweet peppers
  • red onion
  • 1 can of garbanzo beans
  • 2 cups cooked quinoa
  • fresh dill
  • arugula
  • feta cheese

dressing:

  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
  • 2 teaspoon dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon oregano
  • 2 teaspoon honey
  • salt and pepper
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced or grated

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425 and cook 2 cups of quinoa (I like to use my instant pot!)
  2. Slice peppers into rings, roughly chop 1/4 of a red onion, rinse garbanzo beans, and add to a bowl. Add 1/4 cup avocado oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and your favorite herbs.
  3. Add the veggies to the oven for about 15 minutes. While that’s cooking, make your dressing.
  4. Remove the veggie tray from the oven and mix, they will likely need about 10-15 more minutes!
  5. Once quinoa is cooked and cooled, veggies are done, and dressing is mixed, it’s time to assemble! Start with arugula on the bottom of the bowl, add 1-2 cups of quinoa, roasted veggies, crumbled feta, chopped dill, and the dressing.
  6. Mix and enjoy!

This is a great option for meal prep. I make it on the first day and add all of the dressing, which soaks into the quinoa and might be better on day 2 or 3.
