INGREDIENTS
50g Halloumi Cheese
100g Cooked Lentils
30g Cooked Quinoa
125g Nonfat Greek Yogurt
50g Cherry Tomatoes
50g Cucumber
20g Spinach
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 tsp Olive Oil
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat.
Slice the halloumi cheese into 1/4-inch thick pieces and lightly brush with olive oil.
Grill the halloumi for about 2-3 minutes per side until grill marks appear and the cheese is slightly softened.
In a bowl, combine the cooked lentils and cooked quinoa with halved cherry tomatoes, diced cucumber, and fresh spinach.
In a small bowl, whisk together nonfat Greek yogurt, lemon juice, a dash of olive oil, salt, and pepper to create the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently to coat all ingredients evenly.
Plate the salad and top with the warm, grilled halloumi slices.
Serve immediately and enjoy the contrasting temperatures and textures.
