Here is my recipe from last night’s dinner:

Clean Grilled Salmon with Quinoa & Veggies

Salmon:

  • enough fresh or frozen (thawed) salmon for the people you are serving
  • 2 tbsp. lemon juice
  • salt and pepper
  • 1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper

Place the thawed or fresh salmon in a shallow dish that fits in your fridge. Salt and pepper both sides of the salmon. Mix lemon juice and pepper and cover the salmon. Let the fish marinate for the day or at least an hour

* I was surprised by how much great flavor this added! This marinate could go with anything!

Quinoa:

  • 1 c. quinoa cooked in 2 c. water
  • asparagus
  • zuc. and summer squash
  • chickpeas
  • tomato
  • feta (as little or much as you would like!)
  • salt and pepper
  1. Cook quinoa as directed.
  2. While quinoa is cooking, broil the asparagus, zuc, and squash(cut into little pieces) – we drizzled with olive oil and salt and pepper
  3. While all things are cooking, chop up 1 or 2 fresh tomatoes and open a can of chickpeas.
  4. When veggies are done, cut asparagus into small pieces and mix with chickpeas, tomatoes, and feta.
  5. Add hot quinoa and mix! The feta and veggies should melt into the warm quinoa!

Enjoy!
