Quinoa salad with arugula, sweet potatoes and apples

Serves: 10 to 12 portions

Ingredients: 

  • ½ cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1½ cup quinoa
  • Salt
  • 679 gm sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 3/4 inch dices
  • Freshly ground pepper
  • ¼ cup apple cider vinegar
  • 2 large green apples, cut into ½ inch dices
  • ½ cup chopped flat-leaf parsley
  • ½ medium red onion, thinly sliced
  • 8 packed cups arugula

Method: 

  • In a large saucepan, heat 1 tbsp of olive oil. Add quinoa and toast over moderate heat, stirring for 2 minutes.
  • Add 3 cups of water, season with salt and bring to a boil. Cover and simmer the quinoa for 16 minutes. Remove from the heat and let stand for 10 minutes. Fluff the quinoa, spread it out on a baking sheet and refrigerate until it is chilled, about 20 minutes.
  • On a baking sheet, toss the sweet potatoes with 1 tbsp of the olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast for about 25 minutes, stirring once, until golden and softened. Let cool.
  • In a large bowl, whisk the remaining 6 tbsp of olive oil with the vinegar; season with salt and pepper. Add the quinoa, sweet potatoes, apples, parsley, onion and greens and toss well. Serve right away.
