INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup cooked Quinoa (92g)
1/4 cup cooked Chickpeas (41g)
3 ounces Grilled Chicken Breast (85g)
1 tablespoon Toasted Pine Nuts (9g)
1/8 cup Crumbled Feta Cheese (19g)
1 serving Mixed Mediterranean Vegetables (100g)
2 tablespoons Fresh Herbs (parsley & basil, 6g)
PREPARATION
Preheat a small skillet over medium heat and lightly toast the pine nuts until golden and fragrant, stirring frequently to avoid burning. Remove and set aside.
In a bowl, combine the cooked quinoa and chickpeas. Season with salt, pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil if desired.
Dice the tomatoes, cucumbers, and red onion and add them to the quinoa mixture along with the fresh herbs.
Slice the pre-grilled chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and gently incorporate it into the salad.
Sprinkle crumbled feta cheese over the top and finish with the toasted pine nuts.
Toss lightly to combine all flavors and serve immediately, enjoying the balance of protein, texture, and Mediterranean freshness.
