Description

A tasty, healthy and meatless anytime-of-the-year quinoa dish.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups Water
  • 1 cup Quinoa, Uncooked
  • 1 Tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1  Bell Pepper, Stem And Seeds Removed, Chopped
  • 1  Medium Onion, Chopped
  • 4  Small Zucchini, Thinly Sliced In Rounds
  • 1-½ cup Marinara Sauce
  • ¾ cups Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
  • ¾ cups Shredded Parmesan Cheese Plus More For Garnish, If Desired

Preparation

Bring the water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Add the quinoa and return to a boil. Cover with a tight lid and turn the heat down to medium. Simmer about 12 minutes or until liquid is absorbed. Remove from heat and fluff with a fork. Replace the cover and let it stand for 15 minutes.

In the meantime, pour the oil into a skillet on medium heat (use a skillet with a lid). Add peppers and onions into the skillet. Stir and cook for about 5 minutes. Add the zucchini and stir another 2-3 minutes. Pour in the marinara sauce and stir. Cover and let it cook for about 8 minutes or until vegetables are at desired tenderness, stirring occasionally. Sprinkle cheeses over top and cover the skillet until the mozzarella cheese has melted, about 1 minute.

Fluff the quinoa one more time with a fork, then scoop it onto a platter. Cover the quinoa with the vegetable sauce . Sprinkle on a little more shredded Parmesan cheese if desired.
