Nectarine & Honey Breakfast Salad

Makes 2 servings:

​

1/2 Large Nectarine or 1 small Nectarine

1 Lemon (Juiced) 

1 Tsp of Honey 

1 cup cooked (warm) Quinoa

2 cups fresh Spinach

1/4 cup fresh Basil (cut into ribbons)

1/2 cup chopped Cashews

​

Cook Quinoa according to instructions (I used Trader Joe's already cooked/frozen quinoa and heated it up in the microwave).

​

Mix dressing by squeezing juice of 1 lemon into a small bowl with 1 tsp of honey and 1/4 cup of basil. Mix well and set aside. 

​

Assemble personal salads:

In each bowl place 1 cup fresh spinach in the bottom, top with 1/2 cup warm Quinoa, 1/4 of nectarine and 1/4 cup of chopped cashews, top with half of dressing mixture. 

​

Making for just one? This is even better the next morning reheated!
