Scale

Ingredients

1 cup (140 g) of quinoa
½ chicken breast
2 cups (60 g) of spinach, packed
¼ cup (30 g) ruffly chopped walnuts
¼ cup (40 g) hard goat cheese, crumbled
1 medium tomato
2 Tablespoon (7 g) parsley, chopped

VINAIGRETTE
½ lemon, juiced
½ teaspoon lemon zest
2 Tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil
¼ teaspoon salt
1/16 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Measure the quinoa and add it to a medium-sized bowl.
  2. Add to the bowl half of the chicken breast you have already prepared. You can place the ingredients nicely one next to the other if you enjoy looking at a beautiful dish before eating.
  3. If you feel like having a warmish meal, you can warm up these first ingredients by simply placing the bowl in the microwave for about one minute or so until warm.
  4. Measure 2 cups packed or 60 g of spinach. Depending on your preferences, you can leave them in full leaves, ruffly cut them with your hands, or chop them with a knife. I enjoy having as many flavours as possible in each bite, so I prefer to cut my ingredients rather small.
  5. Add the spinach to a medium-sized bowl.
  6. Chop the walnuts and add them to the bowl.
  7. If you have already crumbled the goat cheese when you batch cooked, just measure it and place it in the bowl.
  8. Chop the tomato into small cubes and add it to the bowl.
  9. Chop the parsley and place it together with the other ingredients.
  10. Mix all the ingredients together and store half of it in an airtight container and in the fridge.
  11. Make the vinaigrette by adding all the ingredients to a small jar a mixing them well.
  12. Use half of the vinaigrette for the meal you are going to consume now and save the other half in the fridge.

Notes

You can eat the other half of this nut spinach salad either for dinner or tomorrow. You just have to add the vinaigrette and it’s ready!
