    • 150g fresh baby spinach coarsely chopped
    • 2 large ripe avocados chopped
    • 1/3 cup finely chopped cilantro or parsley, optional 1/3 cup crumbled feta cheese optional

    Dressing

    • 4 Tbsp red wine vinegar
    • 2 Tbsp Dijon-style mustard

    • 1 clove minced garlic
    • 1/2 cup olive oil

    Leave out the feta and the honey and it’s vegan, too.

    Edit: cook and cool the quinoa before assembly.
