Ingredients

  • 1 cup uncooked quinoa
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 large zucchini sliced into 1/2 inch thick pieces
  • 2 large green bell peppers sliced into 1 inch strips
  • 1 large yellow summer squash sliced into 1/2 inch thick pieces
  • 4 cups baby spinach
  • 1 Tbsp. freshly squeezed orange juice
  • 1 tsp. fresh orange zest
  • 3 large green onions thinly sliced
  • 1 Tbsp. canola oil divided
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh basil
  • 1/4 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes

Directions

  • In a medium saucepan, cook quinoa in water over medium heat on the stovetop: Bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer for 15 minutes or until quinoa absorbs all the water. Remove from heat and fluff with a fork and set aside.
  • Heat grill to medium-high. Grill zucchini, green peppers and yellow summer squash until tender, approximately 2 minutes per side.
  • Remove vegetables from heat and dice grilled vegetables on a cutting board, then toss warm vegetables with baby spinach in a large bowl. Add orange juice, orange zest, green onions, canola oil, dill, red pepper flakes, cooked quinoa and San-J Tamari Lite. Gently toss to combine.
