Fresh herb infused Quinoa Salad

This was a happy accident tonight when I needed a salad for a party. The flavor makes the quinoa completely irresistible!

Makes 4-6 servings

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups cooked quinoa
  • 1 cup cooked green lentils, drained well
  • 2 small cloves of garlic, minced very fine
  • 4 Tbsp chopped green onions
  • 3 ripe tomatoes, chopped
  • 1 red bell pepper, diced
  • 1/2 yellow bell pepper, diced
  • 1/2 small red onion, chopped
  • 3 Tbsps fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped
  • 2 Tbsps fresh mint leaves, chopped
  • 2 Tbsps fresh dill, chopped

Instructions:

Gently combine above ingredients in large glass bowl

Whisk together 2 Tbsp extra virgin olive, or avocado oil, 2 Tbsp raw honey (optional), 2 juice of fresh lemons

Gently pour whisked dressing over mixed salad ingredients.

Sea salt & pepper to taste.

Zest 1 of the lemon peels over the top of the salad.

Let sit for about 30 minutes for flavor to develop before serving.

Enjoy!
