Citrus, Shrimp and Quinoa Salad with Feta

This satisfying citrus salad combines sharp grapefruit, clementine, and lime, along with shrimp, quinoa, and feta for a fresh and vibrant lunch. If you don’t like shrimp, skip it or use thin slices of medium-rare steak instead. For the seafood lovers, pair the salad with fresh, seared scallops.

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F. For the quinoa, to a medium saucepan, add the water and quinoa and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook for 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and let sit, covered, for 5 minutes. Uncover, fluff with a fork, and transfer to a large bowl.
  2. For the shrimp, on a large rimmed baking sheet, toss the shrimp with the oil, salt, and chipotle powder or smoked paprika. Roast for 7 to 10 minutes, or until the shrimp are bright pink. Add to the bowl with the quinoa, along with the grapefruit, clementine, feta, and olives. Gently toss to combine.
  3. If you are eating immediately, divide the salad between plates or bowls, top with the lime slices, and serve. If you are taking this to go, add a portion of the salad to a container, top with some lime slices, seal, and refrigerate until you are ready to take it with you. When you get to work, keep it chilled in the refrigerator or with a cooler pack in your bag until lunchtime. To serve, season with lime and enjoy.
