This is the last Secret Recipe Club ever :(. This month I had Pale Yellow, this blog is mostly a baking blog, but as I am currently trying to loose weight I went for a savoury salad recipe! I will definitely have to try some of the cakes when I'm not, they look delicious.
I took the salad with me when I went to London Zoo for the afternoon. I did make one substitution to the recipe and used chard instead of spinach. Yum!

500ml vegetable stock
pinch salt
1 tbsp oil
1/2 large yellow onion, chopped
4-5 garlic cloves, chopped
140g fresh baby spinach
280g cherry tomatoes, halved
juice 1 lemon
Add the quinoa, stock, and a pinch of salt to a medium saucepan. Heat on medium-low so that the mixture is simmering. Stir occasionally and cook until all the stock is absorbed.
Meanwhile heat the oil in a large frying pan, add the onion and cook until the onions begin to brown. Sprinkle the onions with a pinch of salt. Add the garlic and cook for 1 min. Add the spinach and cook until the spinach is wilted. Leave to cool slightly.
Add the tomatoes, then stir in the cooked quinoa. Squeeze in the lemon juice and mix to combine. Serve.
