Preparation
Cook the quinoa
- Heat the BBQ on high (or pan on medium-high), making sure to oil the grill first.
- Using a strainer, rinse the quinoa.
- In a medium pot, combine the quinoa, 1 cup water (double for 4 portions) and a pinch of salt; bring to a boil.
- Reduce the heat, cover and simmer, 14 to 16 min., until tender. Fluff the quinoa.
Grill the vegetables
- Meanwhile, quarter the zucchini lengthwise.
- Remove the woody ends of the asparagus.
- In a large bowl, combine the zucchini, asparagus, a drizzle of oil and S&P.
- Add to the BBQ (or pan) and grill, 2 to 3 min. per side, until tender.
- Transfer to a cutting board. Chop the zucchini and cut the asparagus crosswise into thirds. Reserve the bowl.
Make the salad
- Drain and rinse the chickpeas; pat dry.
- In the reserved bowl, combine the salad mix, chickpeas, zucchini, asparagus, vinaigrette and S&P.
Finish & serve
- Quarter the eggs lengthwise. Drizzle the cut-sides with oil; season with S&P.
- Divide the quinoa between your bowls.
- Top with the salad and eggs.
- Garnish with the pepitas. Bon appétit!
