Ingredients

FOR THE DRESSING

FOR THE SALAD

  • 2 cups cooked quinoa cooled
  • 1 12-ounce jar roasted red peppers drained, dried and diced
  • 1/4 cup parsley diced
  • 2 ounces vegan feta crumbled
  • 1 15-ounce can chickpeas drained and rinsed
  • 1/2 red onion diced
  • 1 avocado diced
  • lemon wedges, pita bread optional, for serving

Instructions

  • Add all of the dressing ingredients to a food processor and pulse until combined. Add water as needed to thin. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed - it might taste overly acidic, but once it is mixed with the salad it will balance out.
  • Add all of the salad ingredients to a large bowl. Pour in the dressing* and toss to combine. Cover and place in the fridge to chill for 30 minutes.
  • Serve with pita bread and lemon wedges.

Notes
