BLT Quinoa Salad

I've made a pledge to take fewer frozen meals with me to work and fix more healthful lunches. I love a good BLT, so this recipe went right to the head of the class. It's so yummy you won't miss the bread.

Serves 4
1 cup quinoa
2 cups water
salt and pepper
2 avocados, diced
4 green onions, thinly sliced
1 pound turkey bacon, cut into pieces and cooked crisp
1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
juice of 2 lemons
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
micro greens

Put the water, quinoa and 1/2 tsp of salt into a sauce pot. Bring it to a boil, reduce the heat to simmer, place a lid on the pot and let it cook for 20 minutes. Remove the lid and let it cool. Cook the bacon until crisp. In a large bowl, mix together the bacon, feta, quinoa, tomaotes, green onion, feta, avocado, lemon juice, olive oil,salt and pepper. Toss. Serve on a bed of micro greens that have been tossed with a pinch of salt and 1 tsp of olive oil.
