Best Spinach Salad With Avocado Dressing Recipes

LOADED SPINACH SALAD WITH CREAMY AVOCADO BASIL DRESSING

Steps:

• Put the quinoa and water in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover, and cook until the water is absorbed, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat the oil in a small pan over medium heat. Add the chickpeas and salt and sauté until the chickpeas are browned and crispy, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the dressing. Put the avocado, basil leaves, garlic, lemon juice, and salt in the blender. Blend and add 1/4 cup water. Add more water as needed to make the dressing to your desired consistency. It should be thick and creamy.
• To assemble the salad, add the baby spinach to a large bowl. Top with the quinoa, chickpeas, tomato chunks, and drizzle with part of the dressing. Toss and add more dressing so everything in the salad is coated. Season generously with salt and pepper. Enjoy!
