I first came up with this recipe when I was trying to find a way to use up some leftover grilled chicken. I had some quinoa and spinach in the fridge, so I threw them in, and then I added some avocado, red onion, and feta cheese. The result was a delicious salad that was both healthy and satisfying. I've been making this salad ever since, and it's always a hit with my family and friends.
