Roasted Tomato Chickpea Quinoa Salad

For quinoa salad

cherry or grape tomatoes, halved

chickpeas

olive oil

salt

black pepper

quinoa

water

scallions, thinly sliced

baby arugula

For vinaigrette

garlic clove,

white wine vinegar

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. On a sheet pan, toss the tomatoes and chickpeas with 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 teaspoon kosher salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Spread the tomatoes and chickpeas across the pan with the tomatoes cut side up. Roast for 25-30 minutes until the chickpeas are golden and crisp and the tomatoes are wrinkled, but still juicy in the center.

While the tomatoes and chickpeas are roasting, make the quinoa on the stove. Combine the quinoa and water in a small saucepan over high heat. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer for 10-12 minutes until the grains are cooked. Let stand for 5 minutes before fluffing with a fork.

In a small bowl, make the vinaigrette. Whisk together the garlic, vinegar, 3 tablespoons olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.

Combine the tomatoes, chickpeas, quinoa, scallions and arugula in a large bowl.

Enjoy it with a slice of bread or toasted pita for a light meal or serve it as a healthy side dish.
