Quinoa salad

Garden harvest, healthy eating quinoa salad!

2 cups cooked Quinoa
2 medium Tomatoes, fresh, diced
4 cloves Garlic
1/4 cup diced poblano, other hot peppers
2/3 cup coarsest chopped purslane, or spinach
2-4 sliced scallions
3-4 cloves garlic, chopped
Handful fresh basil
1 tsp Spanish paprika
Opt. 1/4 cup feta cheese

Dressing:
3 TB Olive oil
2 tsp balsamic vinegar or lemon
salt and pepper

Mix everything together. Stir in dressing

Alternately, sauté poblano, scallions, and garlic. Add purslane last.



In this crappy picture, the quinoa clump on the left is uncooked veggies, and the clump to the right is the one in which I sauteed the veggies before adding them.

Ugh, quinoa always photographs horribly, but OMG was this delicious.
