Method

  1. Heat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Rinse the quinoa, put it in a 6-inch (15 cm) dish with the just-boiled water and the salt, cover with foil and bake 25 minutes, until the water is gone. Rest it, covered, 5 minutes, then spread it out to cool.
  2. Whisk the yogurt with the lemon juice, the oil and 1 tbsp water until it pours.
  3. Dice the cucumber and tomato to the size of the chickpeas.
  4. Build it over the arugula — quinoa, chickpeas, vegetables — pour the yogurt down the middle and finish with the feta and herbs.
Chef’s tipDice it all to one size. Then every spoonful tastes of everything, not of the biggest piece.
Make it twoUndressed, it keeps four days. Once the yogurt is on, eat it the same day.
