Ingredients
  • 3 cups cooked quinoa
  • 1 cup thawed frozen peas
  • ⅓ cup (60 grams) feta cheese
  • ⅓ cup fresh mint, chopped
For the Dressing
  • 1 Tbsp oil (I used olive oil)
  • 3 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 3 packets stevia (I used NuNaturals white stevia packets)
  • Pepper (to taste)
Instructions
  1. Cook quinoa according to package directions. I use my rice cooker.
  2. Once quinoa has cooled, assemble the salad. In a large bowl add quinoa, peas and feta cheese.
  3. In a small bowl, mix together all the dressing ingredients and pour over the salad.
  4. Add chopped mint last, and toss. If not serving right away, add the chopped mint right before serving as it will brown.
