Mushroom, Rice and Quinoa Salad Recipe

How to Make Mushroom, Rice and Quinoa Salad

Method:

  1. Place mushrooms and ¼ cup salad dressing into a bowl and toss to coat. Cover and set aside to marinate for 30 minutes. Cook rice and quinoa following packet directions. Stir with a fork to separate grains, then set aside to cool to room temperature.
  2. Preheat oven to 180°C (or 200°C fan-forced). Place capsicum and onions into a large, greased roasting pan. Spoon over remaining 1 tablespoon of salad dressing and season with salt and pepper.
  3. Roast for 15 minutes or until just tender. Add cherry tomatoes and olives. Roast a further 5-8 minutes or until just warmed through. Set aside for 5 minutes.
  4. Add rice and quinoa, mushrooms and parsley to roast vegetables, toss gently to combine. Drizzle with extra virgin olive oil, season with salt and pepper to taste and serve immediately.
