QUINOA WITH SPINACH, TOMATO AND CHICKEN

A healthy alternative for the gluten-allergic, the lazy college-student. It's so simple, you just cannot go wrong with it. Regarding the quinoa: If you plan on making a lot of these salads, it's advisable to cook the quinoa in a big batch and store it in the fridge. It saves a lot of time because before cooking you have to rinse it extremely well to get rid of the bitter coating.

Quinoa With Spinach, Tomato and Chicken image

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in pan, and saute garlic for about 2 minutes on medium heat.
  • Add the quinoa and cook it up (2 minutes). Then add the tomatoes, spinach leaves and scallion. Keep stirring until the spinach leaves are slightly wilted.
  • Turn of the heat immediately, and season lightly with pepper, a pinch of salt and dried basil. Be careful with the salt, because of the feta!
  • Serve with the chicken and feta. Enjoy your meal :).

1/2 cup cooked quinoa
8 cherry tomatoes, halved
1 cup spinach leaves
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 garlic clove, chopped
1 scallion, chopped
