Preparation Method
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Rinse the quinoa under cold water.
- In a medium saucepan, combine quinoa with 2 cups of water and a pinch of salt.
- Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes or until the water is absorbed and quinoa is fluffy.
- In a large bowl, combine cherry tomatoes, bell pepper, zucchini, red onion, and carrots.
- Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and season with salt and black pepper.
- Toss to coat.
- Spread the vegetables on a baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
- While the vegetables are roasting, prepare the salmon.
- Place the salmon fillets on a separate baking sheet.
- Drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper.
- After the vegetables have roasted for 20 minutes, place the salmon in the oven and bake for an additional 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
- Once everything is cooked, serve the salmon fillets over a bed of quinoa, topped with roasted vegetables.
- Garnish with fresh parsley.
