Vegan, gluten-free, dairy free packed with chickpeas and quinoa. Your ideal Mediterranean salad, topped with fresh mint and our lemony house-made tahini dressing.

The girlfriend has a soft spot for quinoa salads; tries them whenever there's an opportunity to do so somewhere new. She said this was her favorite dish so far (of our first box) and that it tasted and felt like a restaurant meal. She compared it against factor which we just came from in saying "it's really nice not feeling like I'm eating an overpriced TV dinner." She'll get it again.
