Crispy Lentil and Quinoa Power Salad with Lemon Tahini Dressing
Pan-seared lentils and fluffy quinoa tossed with fresh spinach and cucumber, finished with a zesty lemon-tahini drizzle and a dusting of nutty nutritional yeast.
INGREDIENTS
1 cup Cooked Lentils
2 tbsp Cooked Quinoa
3 tbsp Nutritional Yeast
1 cup Fresh Spinach
1/2 cup sliced Cucumber
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1/2 tsp Tahini
1 clove Garlic
PREPARATION
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the cooked lentils to the dry pan and toast for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally until the skins are slightly crisp.
In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, tahini, minced garlic, and a splash of water to create a smooth dressing.
Place the fresh spinach in a large bowl and top with the warm crisped lentils and cooked quinoa.
Add the sliced cucumbers to the bowl.
Drizzle the lemon tahini dressing over the salad and toss well to combine.
Sprinkle the nutritional yeast over the top before serving for a boost of protein and a nutty finish.
