Berry + Quinoa Salad with Fresh Herbs and Feta

from A Thought For Food

This salad is definitely not lacking flavor. I found myself building off each element. I started with the dressing, which is primarily a mixture of fresh herbs (mint, basil and parsley) and lime juice. There’s a bit of minced ginger in there, adding even more brightness to the dish. The berries and feta were the last to go in. At first I thought, “Berries and quinoa. Is that weird?” I threw some of the quinoa mixture into a separate bowl, topped it with some blueberries and raspberries and feta. First bite. I knew. We had a winner. Even my father, who gave it a quizzical look when I passed the bowl to him, ate his serving. Always a sign that a recipe is a success.
