INGREDIENTS:

SALAD:

• 4 cups mixed greens (such as spinach, arugula, or romaine lettuce)
• 1 cup cooked quinoa
• 1 avocado, diced
• 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
• 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh herbs (such as parsley, dill, or chives)

DRESSING:

• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1/2 teaspoon honey
• Salt and pepper to taste

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Prepare the quinoa according to package directions. Let cool slightly.

2. In a large bowl, combine the mixed greens, cooked quinoa, avocado, cherry tomatoes, feta cheese, and fresh herbs.

3. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, honey, salt, and pepper until well combined.

4. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently to coat.

5. Serve immediately and enjoy!

TIPS:

• For a protein boost, add cooked chicken, salmon, or tofu to the salad.

• To make the salad ahead of time, store the dressing separately and toss with the salad just before serving.

• Get creative with your toppings! Try adding chopped nuts, dried cranberries, or crumbled bacon for extra flavor and crunch.

Enjoy! 😋😋
