In a large skillet or wok, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, and sauté until fragrant.
Add the bell pepper, zucchini, carrot, and broccoli to the skillet. Stir-fry the vegetables for about 5-7 minutes until they are tender-crisp.
Add the cooked quinoa to the skillet, along with soy sauce. Mix well to combine all the ingredients.
Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook for another 2-3 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Garnish with fresh coriander leaves and serve hot.
