Ingredients

  • 1/2 lb Fresh Green Beans trimmed
  • 1/2 cup Tri-Colored Quinoa pre-cooked and chilled
  • 1/2 cup Chickpeas pre-cooked or soaked and chilled
  • 1/2 Of a Cucumber diced
  • 1/4 cup Feta Cheese omit if preparing a vegan version

Champagne Vinaigrette

  • 1/4 Red Onion minced
  • 1/8 cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1/8 cup Champagne Vinegar
  • Juice and Zest Of 1 Meyer Lemon
  • 1 tbsp Fresh Dill
  • 1 tbsp Fresh Parsley
  • Kosher Salt/Black Pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Prepare the vinaigrette by whisking the ingredients together in the base of a large bowl.
  • Ass the salad ingredients on top of the vinaigrette and gently toss to coat. (If you're someone who lightly dresses their salad, prepare the vinaigrette in a mason jar with a lid, shake, and apply it to your salad separately.)
