QUINOA, SPINACH, PUMPKIN SEED SALAD
Beautiful color and texture makes me crave this salad. Keeps well for next day lunch, simply add the seeds just before serving. Sunflower seeds may be substituted for the pumpkin. I have cut the balsamic vinegar by half as I found it to be overpowering in the original recipe.

SPINACH, AVOCADO, PUMPKIN SEED SALAD
Courtesy of Nigella Lawson. She also included smoked salmon which is a delighful addition to this salad. The dressing is really tart but compliments everything very well and the seeds add a great crunch. You can also use lettuce leaves as a substitute. (If the dressing is too tart for your taste, feel free to add a little sugar or honey.) Enjoy!!!
