http://schneiderchen.de | © 2011 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com This is a twist on a classic Italian antipasta - Insalata Caprese, using roasted beetroot instead of tomatoes and quinoa for a healthy and satisfying lunch salad, which is very easy and quick to put together.
- 2 Beetroot, roasted
- 200 g Buffalo mozzarella
- Chives
- 5 tbsp Olive oil
- 1 tsp Lemon zest
- 2 tbsp Lemon juice
- Pinch of sugar
- Sea salt and black pepper
- 1 cup Cooked quinoa
|
- Cut the roasted beet into 1cm thick slices. Drain and slice the buffalo mozzarella into thick pieces. Arrange them alternately on a serving platter so that they overlap.
- Cut the chives into thin rings. Whisk together the olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, pinch of sugar, salt and pepper in a bowl.
- Pour half of the dressing over the salad and allow it to marinate for 5 minutes. Toss the cooked quinoa with the rest of the dressing and some chives. Mound the well tossed quinoa in the center of the beet-mozzarella salad. Sprinkle some chives and sea salt over.
