Steps:
- Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Tip the quinoa into a small pan, pour in 400ml water, then stir in the tomato purée, garlic and bouillon powder. Cook, covered, over a low heat for 20 mins before adding the chickpeas, spinach and basil, then cook for a further 5 mins. Leave to stand for 5 mins, so all the liquid is absorbed.
- Meanwhile, rub the peppers with a little oil and place, cut-side down, on a baking tray. Roast for 10 mins, add the cherry tomatoes, then roast for 10 mins more.
- Stir the tomatoes, feta and pumpkin seeds into the quinoa, spoon into the pepper halves and serve with the rocket, tossed with the oil and balsamic vinegar.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, combine the quinoa, olives, cilantro, jalapenos and chile de arbol.
- In a separate small bowl, whisk the olive oil and lime juice. Season with salt and pepper, and drizzle over the quinoa mixture. Add the queso fresco, and mix well to evenly incorporate. Check for seasoning and add more salt if needed.
- Divide the quinoa mixture evenly among the tomatoes, making sure they are filled to the top. Transfer the stuffed tomatoes to a large serving tray before serving.
QUINOA STUFFED TOMATOES
Quinoa Stuffed Tomatoes are a great treat when big juicy beefsteak tomatoes are in season. Cooked tomatoes are bursting with lycopene, which is protective of many types of cancer, and to make this summer favorite even more nutritious, instead of using rice or breadcrumbs for the stuffing, we've used delicious herb infused cooked quinoa. Quinoa is one of the few grains to have complete protein, an important asset when switching to a more plant based diet. This dish is quick and easy to put together, but the real trick is to bake the tomatoes long and slow so their juices seep into the quinoa. They make a fabulous summery meal eaten barely warm or at room temperature. Try them.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- With a sharp knife, cut the stem end tops out of the tomatoes. Cut them in a circular motion at an angle. Gently squeeze the tomatoes over a bowl to remove most of the seeds and excess liquid. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, mix the parsley, scallions, mint, basil, lemon zest, 1 to 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, and salt and pepper. Gradually mix in the quinoa and blend well.
- Stuff the tomatoes with the quinoa, packing the stuffing into the cavities of the tomatoes with your fingers. Place tomatoes on a cookie tray lined with parchment paper. Drizzle olive oil over the tomatoes and the stuffing. Bake for 45 minutes to an hour depending on the size of the tomatoes, or until the tomatoes are very soft. Remove from the oven and let them cool.
- Serve on a platter garnished with fresh basil leaves and drizzled with a little extra olive oil.

- Cook your quinoa: Measure out 1/3 cup of quinoa, pour into a mesh colandar, and rinse the quinoa under running water for a minute. Pour the rinsed quinoa into a small pot and add 2/3 cup water (you’re going for a 1:2 ratio of quinoa and water). Bring to a boil, then cover and simmer for 15 to 18 minutes. Remove from heat, let sit for a few minutes, and fluff with a fork. 1/3 cup uncooked quinoa should yield a little over one cup cooked quinoa. I would use all of it in the filling.
- Core the tomatoes by slicing off the top 1/8 inch of each tomato. Run a small knife vertically around the core. Be careful not to cut through the bottom. Use your finger to gently pull out the core and use the knife to clean out any excess left inside.
- In a medium bowl, mix together the filling (cooked quinoa, feta, artichokes, olives, olive oil and garlic).
