Why It’s Great for Your Skin:

Olive oil: Packed with antioxidants and vitamin E, it helps fight off skin-damaging free radicals, keeping your skin supple and glowing.

Vegetables & Greens: A rainbow of vitamins, minerals and polyphenols to keep your skin glowing.

Lemon & Garlic: Nature’s detoxifiers, giving you that clear, bright complexion.

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups cooked quinoa
  • ½ cup crumbled feta cheese
  • Handful of Kalamata olives

Dressing

  • 1 cup plain Greek yoghurt
  • 1 cucumber - peeled and diced
  • ½-1 teaspoon salt - or to taste
  • ¼ teaspoon cracked black pepper - or to taste
  • Juice of ½ lemon
  • ¼ cup packed fresh dill
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh oregano
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh oregano
  • 2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh basil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Cucumber Salad

  • 1 large cucumber - peeled and chopped
  • ½ red onion - chopped
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Tomato Salad

  • 1 cup cherry or grape tomatoes - halved

  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Chickpeas
  • 2 cans of chickpeas - drained, rinsed, and set aside
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning

Instructions:

Roast Chickpeas: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Mix chickpeas with olive oil, salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 15 minutes until crispy. Alternatively, use an air fryer for the same crisp results.

Dressing: Blend dressing ingredients until smooth in a food processor. For the best flavour, chill for several hours, though it’s still great when fresh.

Cucumber & Tomato Salads: Mix cucumber salad ingredients in one bowl, and tomato salad ingredients in another.

Assemble Bowls: Start with the quinoa base, then cucumber salad, tomato salad, roasted chickpeas, Kalamata olives and crumbled feta then drizzle with the prepared tzatziki dressing.
