Quinoa Salad
Let me start by saying this is a very versatile dish! Add what you or the kids like, have it hot or cold, main dish or side, I mean seriously!
Start with:
1 cup cooked quinoa
1 can chickpeas (drained)
Finely chopped red pepper
Finely chopped & ‘de’-seeded cucumber
Finely chopped small red onion & bundle of parsley
Dressing goes like this:
¼ cup olive oil & fresh lemon juice (~ 2-3 lemons)
1-2 tbsp of minced garlic
Salt & pepper
Consider this a solid salad base. Customize your ingredients & explore the variety & nourishment quinoa has to offer!
