tasty salad!

hey everyone!
i wanted to share this simple yummy salad!

im not going to be putting any measurment, i just go by how i think it should look!
if you dont like this, google the measurments!

what you need:

-quinoa
-hand full(or more) of pecans
  -brown sugar/reg surgar,syrup/honey
-strawberries
-avodcado (if you like)
-goat or feta cheese (i like goat)
-spinach
-cilantro
-raspberry vinaigrette
-chicken breast or shrimp are optional

i always like to start off with making candied pecans
  -mix pecans with brown sugar and syrup
put in the oven at 450 for about 10-15 mins on a tray with aluminum foil spay with oil.
 make sure the pacans are spread evenly!

start quinoa either before or after its up to you!

then if you are using chicken or shrimp id start it now well i prep everything else!
-chop strawberries into fours, dice the cilantro ,slice avodaco

put as much or as little of the quinoa in the bottom of a large bowl then spinach and the cilantro( i like to do two layers of both!)
then strawberries,avodcado,chicken or shrimp and goat cheese, than take out the candied pecans and add away!!! i love lots!
then just the dressing and your ready to dig in!!!
its beautiful to look at and even better to eat!!

i hope you all enjoy this simple tasty summer salad!!!
