- 2 Tbsp olive oil 30 mL
- 1 Tbsp balsamic vinegar 15 mL
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 1 tsp honey 5 g
Salad
- 1/2 cup quinoa 90 g
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 large eggs
- 6 cups spinach or mixed greens
- 1 avocado diced
- 4 oz feta cheese diced
- 1 red bell pepper seeded and diced
Instructions
- Vinaigrette: Whisk together all vinaigrette ingredients.
- Quinoa: Bring 1 cup water to a boil. Add quinoa and salt, then reduce heat to a simmer. Cook for 10 to 15 minutes or until the water is all absorbed. Fluff with a fork and set aside.
- Eggs: Bring a medium saucepan of water (enough to cover eggs) to a boil. Carefully add eggs and cook for 6 minutes and 30 seconds. Drain the water and add cold water to the pan to cool the eggs. Dry and peel eggs.
- Assemble: Toss spinach with balsamic vinaigrette. Add quinoa, avocado, feta, and red bell pepper and toss to combine. Top with halved soft-boiled eggs.
