2 cups of fresh chopped spinach
1 1/2 cup of cooked quinoa (quinoa can be found in the bulk section of your health food store)
2 small tomatoes, cubed
1/2 medium red onion, chopped
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/4 cup of balsamic vinegar or your favorite vinegar
salt & pepper to taste
To cook quinoa, boil approximately two cups of water. Add quinoa and let it boil for about 15 to 20 min. until water is absorbed. Mix all five first ingredients together. Then season mix with olive oil, vinegar, pepper, and salt. Can be served immediately, or chilled for a great summer salad!
*For some variety, add a medium chopped avocado with a little bit of lemon juice...
