ZUTATEN

  • Main Ingredients

    • 5 (16 oz) pint jars
    • 2 cups water
    • 1 cup quinoa
    • 5 cups tightly packed fresh spinach

  • Dressing

    • 3 tablespoons fresh squeezed orange juice
    • 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
    • ¼ teaspoon grated orange zest
    • 🧂 ¼ teaspoon salt
    • ¼ teaspoon curry powder
    • ⅛ teaspoon black pepper
    • ¼ cup light olive oil

  • Toppings

    • ⅔ cup dried cherries
    • ½ cup crumbled goat cheese
    • 5 tablespoons chopped walnuts

SCHRITTE

1

Bring water and quinoa to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until quinoa is tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Allow to cool.

2

Whisk orange juice, vinegar, orange zest, salt, curry powder, and pepper together in a small bowl. Slowly drizzle in olive oil, whisking continuously until well blended.

3

Line up 5 pint jars in an assembly line fashion.

4

Place 1 1/2 tablespoons of dressing into the bottom of each jar. Place 1/2 cup cooked quinoa into each jar, and top with 2 tablespoons cherries. Add 1 1/2 tablespoons goat cheese on top of the cherries. Top with 1 cup of spinach per jar and pack down tightly to remove air pockets; jars should be filled to the top. Finish each jar with 1 tablespoon walnuts. Cover jars and refrigerate until ready to eat.

💡 Use extra spinach to ensure the jars are packed tightly, which helps them stay fresh longer.This recipe is great for meal prep. Prepare your jars at the beginning of the week and enjoy them as a grab-and-go lunch.Feel free to substitute dried cherries with cranberries or raisins, and walnuts with pecans or almonds based on your preference.
