Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 14

Ingredients

2 cups water
1 teaspoon chicken bouillon granules
1 cup multi-colored quinoa
2 cups roughly chopped spinach
3 tablespoons almond oil
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons champagne vinegar
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon minced garlic
¼ teaspoon kosher salt
3 on-the-vine tomatoes (such as Campari®), diced
½ cup crumbled feta cheese, divided
freshly ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

Bring water and bouillon to a boil in a saucepan. Add quinoa, reduce heat to low, cover, and cook until water is absorbed, about 15 minutes. Transfer quinoa to a bowl and cool slightly, 5 to 10 minutes. Stir spinach into quinoa and refrigerate until completely cooled, at least 30 minutes.
Whisk almond oil, olive oil, vinegar, thyme, basil, garlic, and salt together in a bowl until dressing is smooth.
Stir tomatoes, 1/2 of the feta cheese, and dressing into cooled quinoa until evenly coated; top with remaining feta cheese and ground black pepper.

SPINACH AND FETA QUINOA SALAD

Spinach and Feta Quinoa Salad image

All the lovely flavours of spanakopita in a healthful quinoa salad that is pretty easy to make - once you have everything in the pot you can pretty much just sit back and wait for it to finish cooking. The spinach and feta flavour combination works really well in the quinoa salad and the one thing that I like the most, outside of the flavour, is how light and fresh the quinoa salad seems.
