Ingredients

For the Quinoa

  • 1 cup dry quinoa
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups of water

The veggies

  • 1 bunch of fresh green asparagus
  • cup finely diced red onion
  • 1 cup tomatoes diced
  • ½ cup kalamata olives diced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley thinly sliced
  • ½ cup feta cheese crumbled

For the Vinaigrette

  • 6 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons sherry vinegar
  • 2 garlic cloves crushed
  • Salt and pepper

Instructions

  • Bring 2 cups of water, the quinoa and salt to a boil (follow the quinoa box instructions). Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until quinoa is tender, about 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
  • Cut the asparagus in half. Heat the grill or oven, season your asparagus with olive oil and salt and cook until tender, but still crunchy, about 15 minutes.
  • Prepare your vinaigrette (olive oil, vinegar, garlic, salt and pepper), dice your veggies and toss together in a large bowl until well combined. Sprinkle with the crumbled feta cheese and olives.
