autumn power salad

















1 medium sized pumpkin (this was probably sugar pumpkin)
1 box broccoli (250g of florets)
1/2 cup quinoa
5 very small green onions (probably 2-3 normal sized)
olive oil (for baking and the salad)
1 big lemon (use 1 1/2 or 2 of smaller ones)
salt
pepper
feta cheese
pumpkin seeds
next time try with fresh mint (or other herb)


Preheat oven to 200C fan.
Cut the broccoli and pumpkin into bite-sized pieces.
Cook in boiling water for 3 minutes, drain, then pour into a baking bowl.
Top with salt, pepper, olive oil, bake for 10 mins, give it a good stir, bake for another 10-15 mins.
Meanwhile, cook the quinoa in salted water (10 mins boiling + 10 mins resting).

When all is done, put everything in a big bowl, top with olive oil, lemon juice.
Serve with crumbled feta cheese and pumpkin seeds.
