Ingredients

  • 2 cups Cooked quinoa*
  • ½ cup finely chopped fresh parsley
  • 3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh chives or other fresh herbs you could subsitutute basil, oregano or thyme for the chives
  • 2 cups cooked shredded chicken i like to use rotisserie chicken
  • ½ medium-size English seedless cucumber
  • 4 medium Roma or plum tomatoes cut in ¼-1/2 inch dice
  • 2 medium avocado cut in ¼-1/2 inch dice
  • 1 cup feta cheese
  • 1 cup micro greens or baby arugula
  • For the Dressing
  • 6 tablespoons canola oil
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon dried basil
  • ½ teaspoon dried oregano
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. Combine cooked quinoa with chopped parsley and chives
  2. Layer ingredients in jars as desired. I like to plan the layering in advance, so that the layers will compliment each other in color and texture. Alternatively, arrange ingredients on a plate. Top with micro greens (or tiny baby arugula,)
  3. For the dressing, combine all ingredients in a medium-size glass jar. Shake well to combine. Shake again, just before serving.
  4. Drizzle the salad lightly with the dressing just before serving. Pass extra dressing at the table.

Notes

  • * It makes a huge difference how quinoa is cooked. It can either be wet and soggy or fluffy with delicious individual grains. For a easy tutorial on How to Make Perfect Quinoa check out this post.
