Quinoa Salad Worth Sharing

February 5, 2020
-
Posted by Lauren Rodych-Eberle

Let me introduce you to my favourite quinoa salad! It’s delicious in all seasons, but is an especially refreshing summer salad. It’s great by itself, as a side, or as a base/topping to a vegetable salad. I’ve brought it to potlucks many times, and you can easily adjust it for whatever you need – serving it with the feta or the walnuts on the side, if there are known allergies. So, I hope you enjoy!

Summer Quinoa Salad

Double this recipe for a larger group!

Ingredients

  • 1 cup quinoa, uncooked
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 crunchy red apple, chopped
  • 1/2 cup walnuts, chopped
  • 1/3 cup craisins
  • 2 tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 tbsp. lemon juice
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled

Directions

  1. Rinse quinoa and cook with water, as directed on packaging.
  2. While quinoa cools down, chop up apples and walnuts.
  3. In a large bowl, mix quinoa, apples, walnuts, and craisins together.
  4. In a small bowl, mix olive oil, lemon juice, and garlic together.
  5. Pour small bowl of liquid dressing over large bowl of quinoa mix, and combine.
  6. Add in crumbled feta and gently combine.
  7. Serve fresh, or put in the fridge and enjoy as leftovers!

Tip #1: I often like to cook up the quinoa ahead of time, so it has more time to cool down.
Tip #2: This is even better by the second day!

Happy Eating!

“Just because I can, doesn’t mean I should.” “It’s okay to let go.” “Investment in help benefits the whole family system.” Always a work in progress. 

Do you have an affirmation you’re whispering in your own ear lately?!
