SPINACH SALAD WITH RED AND CHIOGGIA BEETS, QUINOA AND WALNUTS
This is one of those salads where the grain enhances texture, adds a nutritional punch, but isn't what the salad is about. It's about beets and spinach. I usually slice beets for salads, or cut them into wedges. Buthere I cut them into very small dice, so the quinoa/beets/walnuts/blue cheese mixture comes together in particularly appealing bites.
