Ingredients | Greek Salad Recipes Feta Cheese

½ cup pine nuts

2 cups water

1 cup quinoa

2 cups chopped fresh spinach

1 (15 ounce) can kidney beans, rinsed and drained

1 cup halved grape tomatoes

½ cup halved Kalamata olives

½ cup crumbled feta cheese

¼ cup minced red onion

¼ cup olive oil

3 tablespoons red wine vinegar

1 tablespoon lemon juice

½ teaspoon dried oregano

salt and ground black pepper to taste

Directions

Heat a skillet over medium-high heat; cook and stir pine nuts in the hot skillet until fragrant and toasted, about 5 minutes.

Bring water and quinoa to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer, stirring occasionally, until quinoa is tender and water has been absorbed, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand for 5 minutes; fluff with a fork and cool to room temperature.

Mix quinoa, spinach, kidney beans, tomatoes, olives, feta cheese, and onion together in a bowl.

Whisk olive oil, vinegar, lemon juice, oregano, salt, and pepper together in a bowl until dressing is smooth; drizzle over quinoa mixture and toss to coat.
