Quinoa Salad

Quinoa has been my go to grain. I make it for breakfast, and now I have created a salad recipe which is absolutely delicious. Great served as a side dish with fish or meat.

Quinoa Salad

1 cup quinoa, cooked and cooled
1 small cucumber, chopped
2 chopped green onions
1 tomato, seeded and chopped
1/2 green pepper, chopped
1/2 cup sliced black olives
1/4 cup feta cheese


Dressing

juice of half a lemon
3 tbsp. olive oil
1/4 tsp. salt and pepper
1/2 tsp. greek oregano or regular oregano


In a small bowl whisk the lemon juice, olive oil, oregano, salt and pepper and set aside

In a larger bowl combine all the ingredients and stir in the dressing. Refrigerate before serving.

I would make this salad ahead of dinner or your event. The flavors will blend while refrigerated preferably overnight.
