Warm Quinoa Grilled Vege Salad

It´s the end of the summer but we can still find a lot of vegetables in the garden. So, if you are already sick of eating them raw, then for a change you can grill whatever vegetables you can find in your garden (Btw, I have been dreaming about this grill). Then add some quinoa and you will get a delicious and nutritious meal what your body needs to get ready for winter.
