QUINOA SALAD WITH SWISS CHARD AND GOAT CHEESE
This versatile salad, or pilaf, may be construed as a home cook's answer to a fast-casual lunch bowl. But it does not need to be piled high with a freewheeling array of additional ingredients. As it is, this could be a stand-alone first course, a lunch dish or a side to serve alongside meat or seafood. Serve it hot, warm or at room temperature. The quinoa adapts well to advance preparation, and letting the salad sit before serving improves the texture. In summer, this dish is prime picnic material.

Steps:
- Remove stems from Swiss chard and chop in 1/2-inch pieces. Chop leaves and set aside.
- Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a 3-quart saucepan on medium. Add onion, garlic and chard stems. Sauté until vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in quinoa and mustard. Add broth, stir, and season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, cover and cook on low 15 to 20 minutes, until the liquid is absorbed. Remove from heat, uncover and let sit 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, heat remaining oil on medium-high in a large skillet. Add mushrooms and sauté, stirring, until lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Add chard leaves and continue cooking until greens have wilted and no more liquid remains in the skillet.
- Fluff quinoa with a fork. Fold mushrooms and leaves into it.
- The cooked quinoa can be set aside at room temperature for several hours and then served, or reheated to warm or hot. Crumble goat cheese and scatter on top just before serving.

Steps:
- For the vinaigrette: Combine the vinegar, honey and mustard in a blender and blend until smooth. With the motor running, slowly add the olive oil and blend until emulsified. Add salt and pepper to taste and pulse a few times to incorporate.
- For the quinoa salad: Bring the salted water or vegetable stock to a boil and add the thyme. Stir in the quinoa, bring to a boil, reduce the heat to low, cover and simmer until cooked through, about 30 minutes. Remove from the heat and let sit 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork.
- Preheat the grill. Brush the asparagus with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill on all sides until just cooked through, about 5 minutes. Remove from the grill and cut into 1/2-inch pieces.
- Transfer the quinoa to a large bowl, fold in the asparagus, olives, goat cheese, basil and parsley. Add just enough vinaigrette to moisten the salad; don't make it too wet. Transfer to a platter and drizzle with more of the vinaigrette.

Steps:
- For the quinoa and goat cheese rounds: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium saucepan set over medium heat, combine the quinoa with 1 cup water. Bring to a boil, cover, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook, covered, until the hull is visible, about 12 minutes. Fluff the quinoa with a fork and set it aside to cool slightly.
- While the quinoa cooks, slice the goat cheese log into eight rounds.
- Add the olive oil to a medium saute pan over medium heat. Add the panko and toast, stirring, until golden. Remove the breadcrumbs to a shallow baking dish and let cool slightly.
- Press the goat cheese rounds into the toasted panko, coating them on all sides, then transfer to the prepared baking sheet. Bake until softened slightly, 4 to 6 minutes. While the goat cheese is baking, make the salad dressing.
- For the dressing: In a medium bowl, whisk together all of the dressing ingredients. Season with additional salt and pepper.
- For the assembly: Combine the cooked quinoa, salad greens, sliced almonds and dried cherries in a large bowl. Add all or a portion of the dressing, tossing to combine. Plate the salad topped with baked goat cheese rounds and serve immediately.

- To cook quinoa: Rinse quinoa with cold water in mesh strainer. In a medium saucepan, bring 1 ½ cups of water to a boil. Add in quinoa and bring mixture to a boil.

- Gently fold in strawberries and basil and any other add-ins you'd like such as chickpeas or chicken. Add salt or extra basil to taste. Place salad in refrigerator for few hours to let flavors marinate together. Once ready to serve, garnish salad with goat cheese, sunflower seeds and extra basil. I serve mine over a bed of spinach.
