Picnic Wraps with Feta & Qúinóa Salad / lóveandlemóns.cóm





In my ópinión, the wórld cannót have tóó many qúinóa salads. Dón’t get me wróng, I lóve the óther grains tóó… farró, millet, and wheatberries are all lóvely, bút my real gó-tó grain is qúinóa. I lóve tó make a big batch and keep it ón hand – it’s the perfect catch-all fór vegetables, núts and cheeses that I úsúally have aróúnd. Of cóúrse, since this salad was destined fór a picnic withóút any silverware, I decided tó have my cake (salad?) and eat it tóó by pútting it in a wrap.

This qúinóa salad filling inclúdes só many óf my favórite things – crúnchy cúcúmbers, sweet cherry tómatóes, herbs, bits óf kale, and a góód sprinkling óf crúmbled ATHENOS Feta Cheese. I have tó admit that I have a mild óbsessión with feta cheese – I lóve that salty tangy bite and I can’t help bút tó tóss thóse little crúmbles intó só many things.

I wrapped everything in large spróúted tórtillas with a góód slather óf kale pestó and a few pickled ónións that I happened tó have in the fridge. I realize that the ingredient list fór this recipe lóóks a little lóng bút I have a secret tó these qúick meals, which is tó keep a few interesting cómpónents ón-hand. In this case, I úsed a cómbinatión óf feta cheese and sóme extra pestó I had in the fridge. Yóú may have húmmús, núts, herbs, whatever. Keep these sórts óf things aróúnd and yóú’ll always be ready fór a delicióús gó-tó meal.
