Ingredients

    1 cup Ancient Harvest Traditional Whole Grain Quinoa, 1 serving =.25 cup dry
    12 serving Cherry Tomatoes, Fresh, 1 Tomato
    1 cup Spinach, fresh
    3 oz Cheese, Mozarella, Low Moist/Part Skim (Lucerne)

    1 fruit without skin and seeds Avocados, California (Haas)

    0.5 cup (8 fl oz) Water, tap
    4 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
    0.50 cup Pistachio Nuts

Directions

1.Cook the quinoa in advance if you can - it tastes best when it's had a few hours to cool.
2.Toss all ingredients together to combine! If the Magic Green Sauce is too thick to toss together with the other ingredients, just add a little water or oil to the bowl and it should toss together smoothly.


Magic Sauce

1.Pulse all ingredients - except pistachios - in a food processor until incorporated.
2.Add pistachios and pulse until mostly smooth (depends on what consistency you want).
3.Serve as a dip, spread, or sauce -- or add additional water or oil to thin the sauce for use as a dressing or a marinade.
