Simple quinoa salad

Quinoa
Garbanzo beans
Grilled chicken strips- optional
halved grape tomatoes
spinach
Feta cheese- low fat version
Balsamic Vinegar

Quick Quinoa according to directions

In a bowl, add quinoa, torn spinach leaves, garbanzo beans, chicken if desired, tomatoes and feta cheese, add balsamic vinegar to taste, mix together. You can make as much or as little of this as you want. I prefer it cold with left over quinoa from dinner the night before but it is also good warm with freshly made quinoa. This is super easy, super healthy and super yummy!
