QUINOA SALAD WITH STRAWBERRIES
This side dish brings all the flavors from a classic strawberry and spinach salad with poppy seed dressing into a light but filling grain salad. The mildly creamy dressing keeps the salad moist without weighing it down. Soaking the shallot in ice water cuts some of its sharp bite and prevents the entire dish from tasting like onion.
