Prep: 5 min
Cook: 20 min
Serves: 4

• 1 head of Romaine or Butter lettuce
• 1 large Our Family® Apple – thinly sliced
• ½ cup uncooked quinoa
• ½ cup Our Family® Sliced Almonds
• 1 medium avocado – diced
• ¼ cup crumbled feta cheese OR goat cheese

Dressing

• ½ cup Our Family® Lemon Juice
• 1/3 cup Our Family® Sugar
• 2/3 cup Our Family® Extra Virgin Olive Oil
• 2 tsp. Our Family® Dijon Mustard

• Our Family® Salt & Pepper to taste

1. Bring 1 cup of water to a boil in a small saucepan. Rinse & drain quinoa, then add it to the boiling water. Reduce heat to a low simmer, cover and cook for 12-15 minutes (until water is absorbed). Transfer quinoa to a bowl to cool.
2. While the quinoa cools, make the dressing and wash the lettuce. Pour all dressing ingredients into a small jar, then shake until well combined. Separate lettuce leaves and rinse.
3. Once quinoa is cool, combine all remaining ingredients in a salad bowl. Toss with dressing.
4. Fill lettuce leaves with salad mixture and serve.
