Grilled Peach Quinoa Salad
Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked quinoa
- 4 small peaches, pitted and quartered
- 2 cups mixed cherry tomatoes
- 1/2 cup Kalamata olives
- 3 green onions, sliced
- 2 small jalapeños, seeded and sliced
- sea salt and fresh cracked pepper, to taste
- Balsamic vinaigrette:
- 4 Tbsps extra virgin olive oil
- 3 Tbsps balsamic vinegar
- 2 Tbsps raw honey
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- sea salt and pepper, to taste (about 1/4 teaspoon each)
Instructions
- First make your vinaigrette: add all the ingredients to a small jar and shake vigorously to combine, or whisk all dressing ingredients well in a small bowl.
- Heat up your grill on medium and spray with avocado oil.
- Add your sliced peaches, then grill for about 2 minutes on each side. We want them warm and juicy with nice grill marks.
- To assemble your salads; add cooked quinoa, cherry tomatoes, olives, onions, jalapeño and grilled peaches, equally onto a large bowl or platter, or onto serving dishes.
- Drizzle each salad with a bit of your homemade balsamic vinaigrette.
- Taste test and adjust the seasonings if desired.
