quinoa with spinach and spicy miso dressing

It has been a busy week for me (and it will be till end of next week as I am involved in an industrial design project) and when I work, I mostly put 110% of myself into it, so I do not realise that I am tired, but sometimes my body just screams: empower me! :) After I ate this, I usually feel much better, so even I don’t have much time now, I really want to share this recipe.
