Ingredients

  • 2 cups quinoa cooked
  • ½ cup parsley finely chopped, fresh
  • 3 tablespoons chives you could subsitutute basil, oregano or thyme for the chives, finely chopped, or other fresh herbs
  • 2 cups chicken i like to use rotisserie chicken, cooked shredded
  • ½ medium-size English seedless cucumber
  • 4 Roma tomato cut in ¼-1/2 inch dice, or plum tomatoes, medium
  • 2 avocado cut in ¼-1/2 inch dice, medium
  • 1 cup feta cheese
  • 1 cup microgreens 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 basil dried
  • ½ teaspoon oregano dried
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper freshly ground

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.
