SPINACH AND QUINOA SALAD WITH DRIED APRICOTS
This salad is so, so, SO pretty, and a cool example of how quinoa can play a supporting role in a salad. The play of leafy greens against the quinoa, punctuated by the tart chewiness of the dried apricots, the bite of the onion and the tanginess of the dressing, makes for a very exciting salad.

This is almost a classic spinach and mushroom salad, but it's bulked up by the quinoa, which goes very well with the mix and is nicely complemented by the walnuts.

- Make the quinoa: Rinse the quinoa in cold water in a saucepan, swirling it with your hand until any dry husks rise to the surface. Drain the quinoa as well as you can and then put the saucepan on the stovetop. Turn the heat to medium-high and dry the quinoa on the stovetop, shaking the pan regularly until you see the quinoa moving easily and can hear the seeds moving in the pan. Add the water, salt and pepper. Bring the liquid to a boil and then reduce the heat to low or medium-low. You should just see a few bubbles, not a boil. Leave a lid on the pan askew (or if you have pour spouts on the saucepan, just put the lid on the pot). Simmer for 20 minutes. Turn the heat off and fluff the quinoa with a fork. If there is any liquid left in the bottom of the pot, place it back on the burner for another 3 minutes or so. Spread the cooked quinoa out on a sheet pan to cool.
- Pre-heat air fryer to 400°F. Toss the cauliflower florets in olive oil and season with salt and ground black pepper. Air-fry at 400ºF for 12 minutes, shaking the basket several times during the cooking process. (Cauliflower can also be roasted in a 450°F oven for 25-35 minutes.)
- While the cauliflower is air-frying, make the lemon vinaigrette. Whisk together the shallots, lemon juice, honey, fresh chives, salt and black pepper. Whisk in the olive oil to emulsify the dressing. Season with salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste and set the dressing aside.
- When the cauliflower has finished cooking and the quinoa has cooled to room temperature, combine the cooled quinoa, pomegranate seeds, pecans, roasted cauliflower, avocado and fresh spinach in a large salad bowl. Add the dressing and toss everything together.
