A tangle of tempting textures and flavors best describes this unusual yet super-delicious, unforgettable salad. It can be made in less than 25 minutes and couldn't be easier to assemble. The only ingredient that requires any cooking is the quinoa, while the rest is tossed together in a bowl for simple prep. Whole-grain gluten-free quinoa is the perfect foil for the slightly bitter radishes, juicy navel oranges, and salty feta cheese. Store-bought red wine vinaigrette ties it all together. And if you've not had radish tops before, this is your chance—stop throwing them away, you're going to love them!
