Photo source
This simple spinach quinoa salad is full of fresh flavours including lemon, sun-dried tomatoes and toasted almonds! Perfect for your post-CNY healthy lifestyle.
INGREDIENTS:
Salad
- 1 cup quinoa, rinsed
- ⅓ cup oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes, drained and chopped
- 2 cups roughly chopped fresh spinach
- ⅓ cup sliced almonds
- ¼ teaspoon olive oil
- Salt, to taste
Lemon dressing
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 cloves garlic, pressed or minced
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- ½ teaspoon salt
- Pinch of red pepper flakes
- Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
INSTRUCTIONS:
To cook the quinoa:
1. Combine the rinsed quinoa and 2 cups water in a medium saucepan.
2. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat and decrease the heat to maintain a gentle simmer. Cook until the quinoa has absorbed all of the water, about 15 minutes, reducing heat as time goes on to maintain a gentle simmer.
3. Cool the quinoa rest for 5 minutes so that the quinoa will fluff up.
To prepare the dressing:
1. Whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, mustard, salt and red pepper flakes.
2. Season to taste with freshly ground black pepper.
To toast the almonds:
1. Warm ¼ teaspoon olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat until shimmering.
2. Add the almonds and a dash of salt and cook, stirring frequently until they are golden and fragrant.
3. Transfer the toasted almonds to a medium-sized serving bowl to cool.
Once the quinoa is done cooking, fluff it with a fork and then transfer it into your serving bowl. Drizzle all of the dressing on top and toss to combine. Add the chopped sun-dried tomatoes and wait a few more minutes to add the spinach so it doesn’t wilt completely. Season to taste with additional salt and pepper. Serve immediately.
