  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

  1. Rinse the quinoa under cold water. In a medium saucepan, combine quinoa and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and let it simmer for about 15 minutes or until the water is absorbed. Once done, fluff with a fork and let it cool.

  3. In a large bowl, combine the cooled quinoa, fresh rocket, sliced pear, and diced beetroot. Toss them gently to mix.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, and pepper. Drizzle this dressing over the salad and toss to coat everything evenly.
  5. Top the salad with the golden halloumi slices and sprinkle the toasted walnuts for that extra crunch.
  6. Give it a taste, adjust the seasoning if needed, and serve it up fresh!
