Ingredients

  • 1 cup quinoa

  2. When quinoa is done – turn out on to a baking sheet to cool.
  3. Heat a sauté pan over high heat – add 1 tbs of olive oil and then the sliced mushrooms. Let brown.
  4. Once the mushrooms are brown, add scallions, garlic and pepper. Sauté, stirring for a minute or two until the scallions have wilted.
  5. Add sautéed mushroom mixture to a bowl to cool slightly.
  6. Add quinoa, walnuts, feta and minced parsley to mushroom mixture and toss.
  7. Whisk together 2 tbs olive oil and juice from half a lemon. Pour over quinoa and toss to combine.
