Quinoa Salad with Roasted Vegetables and Feta Cheese is a vibrant, nutrient-packed dish that blends Mediterranean-inspired flavors with wholesome ingredients. This salad features fluffy quinoa, a protein-rich, gluten-free grain, combined with a medley of roasted seasonal vegetables like zucchini, bell peppers, and sweet potatoes. A scattering of creamy feta cheese adds richness and tang, while fresh herbs like parsley or mint bring brightness. Olive oil and a splash of lemon juice create a light and zesty dressing. Quinoa is a complete protein, making this salad especially nourishing for vegetarians, while the fiber from vegetables promotes gut health. The inclusion of heart-healthy olive oil and minimal refined ingredients ensures a clean eating option, though the feta adds a touch of indulgence with its sodium and fat content. Perfect as a main or side dish, this salad embodies balance and the Mediterranean diet's emphasis on wholesome, flavorful foods.
