Pumpkin & Beet Quinoa Salad

Place the pumpkin, beetroot and red onion on a lined oven tray. Toss in half the olive oil and season generously with salt and pepper. Place in the oven to cook for 20-30 minutes, or until golden and soft. Add the walnuts to the tray in the last 5-6 minutes to toast lightly. Remove from the oven and set aside.

Meanwhile, place the quinoa and water in a medium saucepan, cover with a lid and bring to the boil. Remove the lid and reduce to a medium heat. Simmer for 12-14 minutes, or until the quinoa is tender, has a slight bite to it and the water has absorbed (drain any excess water).

Place the quinoa, baked vegetables, baby spinach leaves, crumbled fetta cheese and walnuts in a large mixing bowl. Stir to combine. In a small bowl combine the remaining olive oil and Dijon mustard, and season with salt and pepper. Pour over the salad and toss to coat.
