Grocery list: quinoa, red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, zucchini, red onion, olive oil, salt, black pepper, feta cheese, fresh parsley.

Ingredients

1 cup quinoa (170g), 2 cups water (500ml), 1 red bell pepper, 1 yellow bell pepper, 1 zucchini, 1 red onion, 2 tablespoons olive oil (30ml), 1 teaspoon salt (5g), 1/2 teaspoon black pepper (2.5g), 1/2 cup feta cheese (75g), 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley (15g)
