serves: 4-6 sides | time: 20 mins

Ingredients:

• 120g Coolibah Organic Superfood Mix
• 1 green apple, thinly sliced (mandoline)
• 1 red onion, thinly sliced
• 4 radish, thinly sliced
• 1 cup Kunara Tri Quinoa, cooked and cooled
• 100g Meredith Dairy Goat’s Cheese
• ¼ cup pistachios
• ¼ cup Flannerys Bulk Food Organic Cranberries
• 4 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
• 4 tbsp white wine vinegar
• 1-2 tsp maple syrup
• 1 tsp Dijon mustard
• Pinch of salt

Method:

1. In a large salad bowl, combine salad leaves, onion, radish, cooked quinoa and goat’s cheese. You may like to add a little bit of the oil from the cheese to lightly dress the salad.
2. Once well combined, add pistachios and cranberries.
3. In a small bowl, combine extra virgin olive oil, vinegar, maple syrup, mustard and salt and whisk until well combined. This dressing is really vinegary—if you would like less, add a little bit more oil or maple syrup to your desired taste. Pour over salad and gently toss. Serve immediately.
