Fruity Quinoa Lettuce Salad

Arrow


Whenever I’m at a salad bar, I’m always putting quinoa in my salad, like so many other people out there, so why don’t we ever think to create a salad for Shabbos with quinoa inside? Try this amazing combo: sweet fruits, nutty quinoa, and crisp greens. Can’t go wrong.

Directions

Prepare the Salad

1. Bring water to a boil in a small saucepan.
2. Add the quinoa, return to a boil, and lower to a simmer for 12 minutes.
3. Fluff with a fork and allow to cool.
4. Combine dressing ingredients.
5. In a large salad bowl, arrange salad with lettuce on the bottom, then the quinoa, and top with the fruits and a drizzle of dressing.
6. Alternatively, you can toss the salad together for equally tasty results.

Notes:

Try this quinoa salad on its own. It’s incredible! Thank you, Esty (and Faigy, of course), my Canadian food buddy!!
