Steps:
- Make the Basil Dressing: Place basil, garlic and lemon zest and a food processor and pulse until finely chopped. Pour in olive oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper and pulse to combine (don't make it too smooth). Place in a bowl or jar and whisk in some sour cream if you want it creamy ( adjusting salt as needed). This will keep 4 days in the fridge.
- Assemble salad. (You can keep all components separate if packing to take to work)
- Toss arugula with quinoa and scallions and some dressing to lightly coat. Divide among two bowls. Add chicken and avocado and any nuts or seeds that you like. Spoon a little more dressing over the chicken and season the avocado with salt and pepper. Enjoy!

GRILLED CHICKEN WITH ARUGULA SALAD
When my husband first found out he had diabetes, I was challenged to start cooking old family favorites in new, healthy ways that he would love just as much. This was the first one that made him say, "I can eat like this all the time!" Shiitake and oyster are some of my favorite mushrooms to use. -Lynne Keast, Monte Sereno, California

ARUGULA, LEMON QUINOA SALAD
A very light side dish, served room temperature or a slight chill with a fresh peppery lemon vinaigrette, peas, scallions, spicy arugula and quinoa. Very simple and easy to put together. It really isn't meant as a main dish, but a great side dish to compliment your main course and very healthy. You could always turn this into a main dish by adding some grilled chicken.

Steps:
- Quinoa -- Cook according to directions. For most brands it is 1 part to approximately 2 parts liquid. Rinse the quinoa very well before you cook it - Important Step! Then bring the liquid to a boil (I prefer to use a broth to add even more flavor), reduce, and simmer for about 15 minutes. Just check your package for complete directions. Once done, just set to the side to cool.
- Salad Ingredients -- In your serving bowl, add the arugula, onion, scallions, garlic, peas, parsley and lemon zest. Toss well.
- Vinaigrette -- I like to make my vinaigrettes in a small tupperware container so I can just shake it and it is ready to go. Besides, if you don't use all your dressing, just put the lid back on and it will keep in the refrigerator for future use. But you can also mix this up in any small bowl or measuring cup. Just mix up the olive oil, lemon juice, shallot, mustard, sugar and pepper.
- Finish -- Simply add the cooled or room temp quinoa to the salad vegetables and toss. Add a little vinaigrette at a time and mix. Add as much vinaigrette as you want. Check for seasoning and add any additional salt and pepper if needed.
- Serve -- ENJOY this lighter salad.

Steps:
- Bring water, quinoa, and a pinch of salt to a boil in a medium saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until quinoa is tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Fluff with a fork and set aside to cool completely.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a small baking dish with foil.
- Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Season chicken with salt, pepper, garlic powder, oregano, and paprika. Brush with olive oil and sear in the hot pan until grill marks appear, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to the prepared baking dish.
- Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink and the juices run clear, about 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes. Cut into ½-inch cubes.
- Combine lemon juice, olive oil, Dijon, and honey in a cup. Season with salt and pepper. Whisk rapidly until dressing is smooth.
- Combine arugula, quinoa, and chicken in a large mixing bowl. Add dressing and toss to coat.
