This refreshing Spring Quinoa Salad is packed with nutritious ingredients like peas, feta cheese, bacon, and herbs. Topped with a tangy honey lemon vinaigrette and crushed almonds, this salad is a satisfying and flavorful dish for any occasion.

Notes

The tossed salad can be kept for up to two days without getting weird – it actually soaks up the dressing, and it works great to toss the leftovers with fresh greens. Also, in my opinion, you can never have too much fresh herb-age and mint would be a great addition.
