*I got this recipe from bhg.com
- 1/2cup uncooked quinoa, rinsed and drained*
- 1cup water
- 2roma tomatoes, seeded and finely chopped
1/2cup shredded fresh spinach- 1/3cup finely chopped red onion (1 small)
- 2tablespoons lemon juice
- 2tablespoons olive oil
- 1/2teaspoon salt
- Spinach leaves
- 2ripe avocados, halved, seeded, peeled, sliced
- 1/3cup crumbled feta cheese
In a 1-1/2-quart saucepan combine quinoa and water. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer, covered, about 15 minutes or until liquid is absorbed.
Transfer quinoa to a medium bowl. Add tomato, spinach, and onion; stir to combine. In a small bowl, whisk together lemon juice, oil, and salt. Add to quinoa mixture; toss to coat.
Place spinach leaves on 4 salad plates, I used a handful of spinach leaves. Arrange avocado slices on spinach leaves. Spoon quinoa mixture over avocado slices. Sprinkle with some of the feta.
Makes 4 main-dish servings.
This is what the quinoa looked like before it was plated. It was so pretty in the bowl!
