Course: Salad

Cuisine: American

For the Salad:

2 packages Seeds of Change Quinoa and Brown Rice with Garlic precooked from Costco
2 sticks light mozzarella cheese I used Frigo
12 slices light salami cut into bite-size pieces, I used Gallo
3 oz cooked boneless, skinless chicken breast cut into bite-size pieces, I used Fresh Additions
1/4 cup fat-free feta cheese
1 whole Roma tomato diced
1 whole green bell pepper diced
2 scallions chopped
1/2 cup light Olive Garden Salad Dressing

Directions:

Start by heating the Seeds of Change Quinoa and Brown Rice with Garlic according to the package instructions. This usually takes just a few minutes in the microwave. Once done, let it cool slightly.
While the grains are heating, take your cutting board and knife to chop the Roma tomato, green bell pepper, and scallions. Set them aside in a bowl.
Next, cut the light salami and cooked chicken breast into bite-size pieces. This makes it easy to mix and enjoy in every bite of your salad.
In the large mixing bowl, add the cooked quinoa and brown rice, chopped vegetables, salami, chicken, and mozzarella cheese sticks (cut them into small pieces). Gently fold everything together.
Sprinkle the fat-free feta cheese over your salad, and drizzle the light Olive Garden Salad Dressing. Stir gently to ensure that the dressing is evenly distributed and every ingredient is coated.
Your Macro Friendly Grain Salad is now ready to be served! You can enjoy it immediately or refrigerate it for a refreshing meal later.
