▶️ SALAD RECIPE INGREDIENTS: (3 to 4 servings)

???? To roast the Eggplant and Red Bell pepper:
Olive oil
1 large Eggplant / Aubergine (490g approx. including skin)
1 large Red Bell Pepper (300g approx. including seeds/core)
Aluminum foil to cover the roasted vegetables

✅ ???? Ingredients:
1+1/3 Cup / 300g ROASTED Eggplant (VERY FINELY CHOPPED INTO A MASH)
3/4 Cup / 140g ROASTED Red Bell Pepper (VERY FINELY CHOPPED ALMOST INTO A MASH)
2 Cups / 1 can (540ml can) COOKED White Kidney Beans / Cannellini Beans
1/2 cup / 75g Carrots finely chopped
1/2 cup / 75g Celery finely chopped
1/3 cup / 50g Red Onion finely chopped
1/2 cup / 25g Parsley finely chopped

???? Salad Dressing:
3+1/2 Tablespoons Lemon juice OR TO TASTE
1+1/2 Tablespoon Maple Syrup OR TO TASTE
2 Tablespoon Olive Oil (I have used organic cold pressed olive oil)
1 Teaspoon minced Garlic
1 Teaspoon Ground Cumin
Salt to taste (I added 1+1/4 Teaspoon pink Himalayan salt)
1/4 Teaspoon Ground Black Pepper
1/4 Teaspoon Cayenne Pepper (OPTIONAL)

▶️ METHOD:

Pre-heat the oven to 400 F. Line a baking tray with parchment paper. Cut the eggplant in half. Score it in a crosshatch diamond pattern about 1 inch deep. Brush with olive oil. Cut the red bell pepper in half and remove the seeds/core, brush with olive oil. PLACE BOTH THE EGGPLANT AND PEPPER FACE DOWN on the baking tray.

✅???? NOTE: IT’S REALLY IMPORTANT THAT YOU PUT IT FACE DOWN ON THE BAKING TRAY. This will trap the steam and help it bake properly.

Bake in a pre-heated oven at 400 F for about 35 minutes or until the vegetables are nicely roasted and soft. Then remove from the oven place it on a cooling rack. Let it cool down.
✅???? MAKE SURE TO COVER IT, THIS WILL LOOSEN THE SKIN of the vegetables and make it easy to peel the skin.

Drain the cooked beans and rinse it with water. Let the beans sit in a strainer until all the water is drained. WE DO NOT WANT SOGGY BEANS here.

To a small bowl, add lemon juice, maple syrup, olive oil, minced garlic, salt, ground cumin, black pepper, cayenne pepper. Mix thoroughly until well combined. Set it aside.

By now the roasted eggplant and pepper would have cooled off. So uncover and peel the skin the bell pepper and CHOP IT VERY FINELY ALMOST INTO A MASH. Scoop the pulp of the roasted eggplant and discard the skin, CHOP IT VERY FINELY BY RUNNING THE KNIFE SEVERAL TIMES UNTIL IT TURNS INTO A MASH.

✅???? IT’S VERY IMPORTANT THAT YOU FINELY CHOP THE ROASTED EGGPLANT AND PEPPER ALMOST INTO A MASH – to make this dish creamy and it becomes a part of the dressing.

Transfer the roasted eggplant and pepper to a large bowl. Add the cooked kidney beans (cannellini beans), chopped carrot, celery, red onion and parsley. Add the dressing and mix thoroughly.

Cover the bowl and CHILL IN THE REFRIGERATOR FOR 2 HOURS, TO ALLOW THE BEANS TO ABSORB THE DRESSING. DO NOT SKIP THIS STEP.

Once chilled, it’s ready to serve. This is a very versatile salad recipe, serve with pita, in a lettuce wrap, with chips and can also be eaten with steamed rice. It stores well in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days (in an airtight container).

▶️ IMPORTANT TIPS:

???? After brushing the raw eggplant and pepper with olive oil, MAKE SURE TO PLACE IT FACE DOWN ON THE BAKING TRAY. This will trap the steam and help it bake properly

???? Drain the cooked beans and rinse it with water. Let the beans sit in a strainer until all the water is drained. WE DO NOT WANT SOGGY BEANS

delicious quinoa salad recipes. I recognize we'' re a little bit still in winter. It'' s in fact snowing outdoors (laughs) as I'' m shooting this in Colorado. Yet I directly like having
salads all the time, and also quinoa salads in
specific are perfect for the winter season because I discover that they'' re a whole lot heartier, and you can additionally serve them
warm, so they'' re cozy also. So today I'' m gon na reveal you 2 different quinoa salad dishes. One is a pomegranate quinoa salad, and after that one is a roasted
vegetable quinoa salad with a scrumptious toasted
flavor vinaigrette. It is so flavorful. You people are mosting likely to absolutely like it. So if you wan na make either of
these recipes as we'' re going, the links are right down below this video.You can simply click those web links. They ' ll take you over to the blog site. They have every one of the directions, ingredient listings, and whatever you require to understand to make them.
I likewise desire to pause rapidly before we dive in and also urge you to subscribe if you are not yet a participant of this remarkable neighborhood right here on YouTube. It'' s super simple to subscribe. There is a red switch right listed below this video clip. It claims Subscribe, as well as that'' s all you got ta do. Just click that button. Or else, allow'' s proceed as well as get involved in today'' s dishes. So we are starting with a.
pomegranate quinoa salad, as well as we'' re gon na begin with our clothing. We'' re gon na add some gewurztraminer vinegar, in addition to some lemon juice, tahini, a little bit of fresh grated garlic. You might additionally make use of garlic powder. Red pepper flakes, salt and.
pepper right into a small bowl, and afterwards you can simply.
utilize a whisk or a spoon to whisk this entirely.
until it is smooth as well as luscious. If it thickens up way too much,.
simply add a dash of water, yet it should be thin.
sufficient that it'' s pourable.Set that apart

, and we'' ll step. on to our salad active ingredients. So we are going to include our.
quinoa into a mixing bowl, in addition to some carefully sliced up kale. We'' re additionally gon na include
in. some crispy chickpeas. These I actually just acquired at the shop, however you could also make.
some if you desired. Link down below. Some pomegranate seeds,.
as well as some walnuts. And then you can simply sprinkle.
the clothing over the salad as well as utilize a wooden spoon to blend all of it together.
till it is integrated. If you wanted to mass this up much more, you might include some avocado, or you can use another.
type of healthy protein too, leading it with barbequed.
poultry, perhaps smoked tofu, and make it more of a.
hearty meal-based salad.Either means, scrumptious, great texture, truly great balance of salty and also wonderful, and it'' s likewise actually healthy. So then for our following recipe, we'' re gon na begin by.
roasting our veggies. We'' re gon na add our vegetables onto a pan. I am using cauliflower, Brussels.
sprouts, and eco-friendly beans, but you might utilize any type of mix.
of veggies that you desire. And afterwards we'' re gon na simply. sprinkle them with some oil. I'' m using avocado oil. Sprinkle with salt and also pepper. Scrub it all together till they are sort of covered as well as layered. And pop that in a 425 level stove for regarding 30 minutes or so. While that'' s roasting, we ' re. gon na make our clothing. So we ' re gon na dry toast
some flavors because it ' s gon na actually aid. elevate the taste of them, and after that we ' re

gon na add. them right into our dressing.So the three various spices that we'' re utilizing are. whole coriander seeds, entire cumin seeds, and also whole fennel seeds. And afterwards you can just toast.
this for concerning 30 to 45 seconds till it obtains good and.
gold brown as well as fragrant. Some of the seasonings.
could even begin to pop. That'' s when you understand it'' s done. Promptly remove it from the warmth and also move it into either.
a blender, seasoning mill, or a mortar and also pestle. I do advise really the seasoning mill and also the mortar as well as pestle. That functions far better than the mixer, yet I didn'' t have
one at the. home right here in Colorado. So I included my own right into a blender or food processor, and afterwards we'' re gon na include the remainder of our clothing components,. which are olive oil, white a glass of wine vinegar, some lemon juice, salt and pepper.Pop the lid on your blender or food processor, and also you can blend it up until. it is smooth as well as velvety. Currently, if you are utilizing a mortar and also pestle or a flavor grinder, you put on'' t. need to utilize your blender. You can just blend this.
entirely in a bowl. Simply grind up your seasonings.
and also then blend it in with the remainder of the active ingredients. As soon as our baked veggies are.
done and also our clothing is done, we'' re gon na prepare the salad. You'' re just include your cooked.
quinoa right into a blending bowl. Include your baked veggies,.
along with some chickpeas.And after that I additionally did some sunflower seeds and some pumpkin seeds. and also the clothing on the top.
So I have some alternative. concepts in the blog site message if these dishes or these. active ingredients don ' t benefit you. So have a look at'the blog site. post if you wan na see what
else I suggest using. rather of these ingredients if
a few of them put on ' t work for you. Regardless, this salad is. another among those options that ' s actually great for'protein versatile. It ' s scrumptious with any kind of various other. kind of prepared protein on the top
, poultry, shrimp, steak, tofu, you name it. It also maintains really well in the refrigerator, as well as it has a truly unique, however incredibly delicious and also durable taste. (brilliant songs) And there you have it, my friends.I hope you appreciated our. quinoa salad dishes.
