  • ¼ cup (43g) Dry Quinoa - Available in 16-ounce bags
  • 1 tsp (5g) Tahini - Available in 16-ounce jars
  • 1 tbsp (20g) Date Syrup - Available in 18-ounce bottles
  • ¼ cup (61g) Lemon Juice - Juice from 2 lemons
  • 1 tbsp (15g) Water (warm)
  • 5 cups (100g) Arugula - Available in 4-ounce containers
  • 1 ½ tsps (4g) Sunflower Seeds - Available in 16-ounce bags
  • 1 cup (152g) Strawberries (chopped) - Available in 32-ounce bags

Instructions
 

  • Cook the quinoa according to package directions. Let cool.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the tahini, date syrup, lemon juice, and water.
  • Add the arugula to the bowl and toss to coat with the dressing. Fold in the cooled quinoa, sunflower seeds, and strawberries. Transfer to plates and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Quinoa: If using pre-cooked quinoa, multiply the uncooked amount listed in the ingredients by 3 to determine the cooked quantity needed. (Quinoa triples in volume when cooked.)
  • No Arugula: Use baby spinach instead.
  • No Sunflower Seeds: Use pumpkin seeds, hemp seeds, or chopped walnuts instead.
  • Meal Prep: For best results, store components separately in the refrigerator and assemble just before serving.
