CAPRESE QUINOA SALAD ???????? easy, meal prep friendly, and packed with fresh flavors!

Ingredients:
2/3 cup quinoa (120 g) dry
10 oz package cherry tomatoes, halved
1 cup english cucumber (133 g) finely chopped
handful fresh basil (14 g) chopped, ~1/3 cup
15 oz can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
4 links Caprese chicken sausage (284 g)
8 oz fresh mozzarella pearls (224 g)
big pinch sea salt, to taste

Balsamic Vinaigrette: (blend or shake together vigorously)
1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil (80 ml)
3 tbsp balsamic vinegar (45 g)
1 tsp dijon mustard (5 g)
1 tsp honey (7 g)
1 tsp garlic powder
salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:
1. Rinse the quinoa well and cook according to package instructions (I cook in a rice cooker on the “white rice” setting). For a delicious roasted flavor, toast on a hot pan for a couple minutes before cooking.
2. Meanwhile, wash and chop the tomato, cucumber and basil. Drain and rinse the chickpeas and slice the chicken sausage into ~1/4 inch coins.
3. Once the quinoa has cooked and cooled, fluff with a fork and add to a large mixing bowl along with the rest of the ingredients and stir. Serve with balsamic vinaigrette and enjoy!
