Ingredients:

Serving

1 1/2 cups quinoa, rinsed, drained (9 to 10 oz)
4 cups packed baby spinach leaves
2 (15 -16 oz) cans garbanzo beans, rinsed, drained
1 3/4 cups unpeeled english cucumbers, cut into 1/3 inch cubes
1 pint multicolored baby heirloom tomato, halved (2 1/2 cups)
1 cup packed fresh mint leaves
1 1/2 cups coarsely crumbled feta cheese, divided (about 7 oz)
1/4 cup sherry wine vinegar
2 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
1/2 cup olive oil

Directions:

Place quinoa in large saucepan; add enough salted water to cover quinoa by 1 inch. Bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low; cover and simmer until quinoa is tender, 15 to 16 minutes. Drain. Chill until cool.
Meanwhile, combine spinach leaves, garbanzos, cubed cucumber, halved tomatoes, mint leaves, and half of feta cheese in extra-large bowl. Add cooled quinoa and toss gently to blend.
Whisk vinegar and smoked paprika in small bowl. Gradually whisk in oil. Season dressing with salt and pepper. Pour dressing over salad; toss to coat. Season generously with salt and pepper. Sprinkle remaining feta over.
