Grill salmon on a BBQ grill or prepare in the oven as follows:

For the dressing, in a small bowl combine lemon juice, honey, mustard and a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir to combine. Whisk in the olive oil in a small stream until well combined.
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS:
Spoon quinoa onto serving a plate or platter, and scatter the greens and veggies around. Place the cooked salmon on top. Drizzle with the dressing and sprinkle with the feta cheese.
