Quinoa with Microgreens, Strawberries and Feta

Ingredients:

  • 1 C quinoa, rinsed

  • 2/3 C water

  • 2–3 C strawberries, sliced

  • 3–4 radishes, thinly sliced into half-moons

  • 2 C microgreens

  • Feta, to garnish (optional)

  • Sliced almonds, toasted (optional)

  • Zest of 1 orange

  • Zest of 1 lime

  • 4 TBSP fresh orange juice

  • 2 TBSP lime juice

  • 3 TBSP extra-virgin olive oil

  • 1/2 TSP kosher salt

 

Directions:

  • Bring the quinoa and water to a boil in a medium saucepan, with a few pinches of salt. Once water boils, reduce to low, cover, and cook about 12 to 14 minutes until water is absorbed. Let sit covered until cooled.

  • Meanwhile, slice the strawberries and radishes. Mix the strawberries, radishes, quinoa, and microgreens in a bowl. (Save a few of the strawberries and radishes to put on top after dressing.)

  • Make the dressing by mixing together the zests and juices with the olive oil and salt. Dress the salad just before eating. Garnish with feta and/or toasted almonds, if using. For any leftovers, add a bit of orange or lime juice to brighten up.
