A healthy, bright salad bursting with colour and flavour.

Ingredients

1 cup quinoa

2 cups vegetable stock

1 fresh beetroot, peeled and grated

1 carrot, peeled and grated

2 cups baby spinach

1/3 cup roasted almonds, roughly chopped

Dressing

1 tbsp dill, chopped

1 tbsp mint, chopped

1 garlic clove, crushed

3 tbsp apple cider vinegar

4 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

Method

  1. In a saucepan over medium high heat, bring vegetable stock and quinoa to a boil.
  2. Reduce heat to low for a gentle simmer and cook for 15 minutes stirring occasionally until the quinoa has absorbed all the liquid. Remove from heat and cover the pot with a lid to let quinoa sit for a further 5 minutes to steam. When ready, remove the lid and fluff quinoa with a fork.
  3. To make the dressing, place garlic, herbs, vinegar and olive oil in a bowl. Whisk to combine. Season to taste.
  4. Assemble all salad ingredients and quinoa in a large bowl or platter. Pour dressing over the top and toss to combine.
