A tangle of tempting textures and flavors best describes this unusual salad. Whole-grain, gluten-free quinoa is the perfect foil for the slightly bitter radishes, juicy navel oranges, and salty feta. If you’ve not had radish tops, this is your chance—you’ll love ‘em.

Uncooked quinoa

1 cup(s), red variety, rinsed

Orange

3 medium, navel variety

4 large, with tops, halved and thinly sliced and tops torn

Table salt

Black pepper

Crumbled feta cheese
