Instructions

 

• Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• In a medium-sized pot, add quinoa and 1 cup of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes or until the water is absorbed and the quinoa is tender.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine sliced red bell pepper, zucchini, yellow squash, and red onion.
• Add olive oil, garlic powder, dried thyme, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat vegetables evenly.
• Spread the seasoned vegetables out on the lined baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the vegetables are tender and lightly browned.
• While the vegetables are roasting, prepare the salmon fillets. Season both sides of each fillet with salt and pepper.
• When the vegetables are almost done, place the seasoned salmon fillets on the same baking sheet, skin side down.
• Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for an additional 10-12 minutes or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
• Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the salmon and vegetables cool for a few minutes.
• To serve, divide the cooked quinoa between two plates. Top each plate with a salmon fillet and roasted vegetables.
• Enjoy your delicious and healthy Baked Salmon with Quinoa and Roasted Vegetables!
