Method
- Rinse the quinoa under cold water, then combine it with two cups of water or vegetable broth in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Once boiling, reduce heat to low, cover, and let simmer for about 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let sit for 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork.
- While the quinoa is cooking, prepare the vegetables by halving the cherry tomatoes, dicing the cucumber and bell pepper, and slicing the avocado.
- In a large bowl, combine the spinach or mixed greens with the chopped vegetables.
- Add the cooked quinoa to the bowl with the vegetables. Drizzle with olive oil and lemon juice, and season with salt and pepper. Toss gently to combine.
- Sprinkle crumbled feta cheese on top and garnish with fresh herbs before serving.
