Quinoa Salad + Tangerine Vinaigrette Dressing

So, if my family didn't have to eat, I would eat this every single lunch & dinner.  It is THAT good!  I made Lance try a bite (GASP:: HE ATE SPINACH!!) and he said "this has really good flavor!"

I thought I'd pass along the recipe to you.  Last month with my Essential Rewards order with Young Living, I got a free Tangerine Oil so I decided to try it out in this salad.  It did not disappoint! Also, diffuse this oil.  It smells so fresh and clean!

For the Salad:
1/2 cup cooked and cooled quinoa
1/2 cup (or more) spinach, chopped
Pomegranate Seeds- I used half the pom for this.  Emerson ate the other half.  WIN!
And a few mandarins

I have also added fresh peaches, blueberries, strawberries to this.  Whatever is in season- USE IT!  You can't go wrong.


Now, here's the kicker.  THE DRESSING!
This dressing is, lick your plate, good!
2 TBSP Fractionated Coconut Oil (or oil of choice---but this is loaded with MCT so it's good for Emerson too)
1 TSP of Vinaigrette (or more---I like it with a little kick)
1 TSP of brown sugar
1 Drop of Tangerine Oil (not for use in children under 6)

Stir together and pour on top of the salad.

I hope you enjoy this yummy, fresh salad!  Try it and let me know what you think!
