QUINOA SALAD

MADE QUINOA SALAD WITH THE FETA CHEESE I GOT FROM PAPA CRISTOS. 

IT WAS REFRESHING, LIGHT AND YET FLAVORFUL.  IT WAS FUN AND EASY TO MAKE. 

THIS IS HOW I MADE MINE.  THERE ARE ABOUT 6 SERVINGS.

 CHOP UP 2 CLOVES OF GARLIC

INFUSE CHOPPED GARLIC INTO EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL

MAKE SALAD DRESSING - MIX DRIED OREGANO LEAVES, GARLIC OLIVE OIL,

RED WINE VINEGAR, FRESH SQUEEZED LEMON JUICE,

FRESH GROUND PEPPER AND SEA SALT.

COOK QUINOA WITH CHICHEN STOCK.  COOK UNTIL CHICKEN STOCK IS FULLY ABSORBED. ABOUT 20 MIN SEE YOUR QUINOA PACKAGE FOR SPECIFIC COOKING DIRECTION.

BOIL CHICKEN BREAST WITH WATER AND SALT.  CHOP UP INTO CUBES.

CHOP UP 4 GREEN ONIONS.

CHOP UP 1 RED ONION.

CUBE 1 ENGLISH CUCUMBER.

I USED A BIG CHUNCK OF FETA, BUT IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE THIS MUCH. 1/4LB  WOULD BE AS GOOD.

 MIX EVERYTHING IN A BIG SALAD BOWL.  I ALSO ADDED WHITE CORN AND YELLOW GRAPE TOMATO.

FINISHED!

IT'S DELICIOUS AND SUCCESSFUL FOR THE FIRST ATTEMPT. IT'LL BE A STAPLE FOR THIS SUMMER :)
