SPINACH SALAD WITH RED AND CHIOGGIA BEETS, QUINOA AND WALNUTS



Spinach Salad With Red and Chioggia Beets, Quinoa and Walnuts image

This is one of those salads where the grain enhances texture, adds a nutritional punch, but isn't what the salad is about. It's about beets and spinach. I usually slice beets for salads, or cut them into wedges. Buthere I cut them into very small dice, so the quinoa/beets/walnuts/blue cheese mixture comes together in particularly appealing bites.
