Quinoa Salad

Quinoa, a grain, has a lot of protein in it. It is so easy to prepare and add whatever raw vegetables you like to it. This is one of my favorite ways to make it.

 

  • 1 Cup Quinoa cooked per package directions 
  • 1/2 Cup Bite sized pieces of Broccoli Florets (just break them off or cut them off)
  • 1/2 Cup Bite sized pieces of Red and Yellow Bell Peppers
  • 1 Tablespoon Fresh chopped Basil
  • 1/2 teaspoon of Lemon Zest
  • Juice of 1 Lemon
  • Splash of Red Wine Vinegar
  • Splash of Olive Oil
  • Salt and Pepper to taste

 

Mix and eat warm right away. Or chill. Works well for picnics.
