Easy Quinoa Salad for Meal Prep
15 mins prepServes 5
This quinoa salad combines fluffy quinoa with chickpeas, feta, crisp cucumbers, peppers, and fresh herbs, all tossed in a zesty honey Dijon dressing. A wholesome dish that works just as well for meal prep as it does for an easy weeknight dinner.
Cook the Quinoa
2 Rinse the quinoa under cold water, then place it in a pot with the broth. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes or until the liquid is absorbed. Remove from heat and let it cool.
Prepare the Dressing
4 In a small bowl or jar, whisk together olive oil, Dijon mustard, oregano, grated garlic, red wine vinegar, honey, salt, and pepper until smooth. Set aside.
Assemble the Salad
6 In a large bowl, combine the cooled quinoa, feta, cucumbers, onion, mini peppers, pepperoncinis, fresh herbs, walnuts, and chickpeas.
Dress and Serve
8 Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Serve right away or refrigerate for meal prep.
