Dalla Cucina di Laura~LOOKING FOR A LIGHT AND HEALTHY MEAL TO OFFSET THE HEAVY HOLIDAYS?
This salad is delicious and easy, any time of year! Ingredients: Fresh organic, baby spinach leaves Imported Greek Feta Cheese- from sheep's milk Mediterranean olive mix, pitted (at specialty store or Whole Foods olive bar) Organic Cherry tomatoes, halved Organic Cucumber, diced small Red onion, raw and chopped (optional) Tri-colored quinoa, cooked al dente in broth, drained and cooled Roasted sunflower seeds, unsalted Golden raisins (preferably soaked) Imported Extra-Virgin Olive Oil (from Greece, Italy, Sicily or Spain) Fresh squeezed lemon juice Pinch or two of fresh chopped oregano (mix with feta) Directions: This dish is made "to taste". Which is why I did not give measurements. Take or leave anything you like. Some days I add grilled salmon, lemon chicken, roasted lamb or hard boiled eggs...whatever I'm in the mood for. The longer it marinades, the tastier it gets! This can also be turned into a wilted spinach side dish, which is spectacular. Just use more spinach, lightly sauteed before adding other ingredients. Chef tip: Make your own fresh dressing using olive oil, 1/2 of shallot, lemon juice, oregano and hint of feta in a blender before serving. Καλή όρεξη! (Buon Appetito!) xx |
