Instructions
- 1.Preheat your oven to 200°C. On a baking sheet, toss the chopped bell pepper, zucchini, and whole cherry tomatoes with 15ml of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast for 20-25 minutes until tender.
- 2.While the vegetables roast, rinse the quinoa. In a medium pot, combine quinoa with 400ml of water or broth, bring to a boil, then cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes until the liquid is absorbed. Fluff with a fork.
- 3.Heat 15ml of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sauté the red onion until soft (3-4 minutes), then add the minced garlic and cook for one more minute.
- 4.Add the ground lamb to the skillet, breaking it apart with a spoon. Cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat, then stir in the dried oregano, salt, and pepper.
- 5.Prepare the dressing by whisking together the remaining 15ml of olive oil and the fresh lemon juice in a small bowl.
- 6.Assemble four meal-prep containers by layering the cooked quinoa, lamb mixture, roasted vegetables, and chickpeas. Drizzle with the lemon dressing, garnish with fresh parsley, and seal for storage in the refrigerator.
