Quinoa Salad Recipe

Fiesta quinoa salad is becoming one of my favorite recipes. It’s so fresh and delicious, not to mention healthy! This salad is filling enough to serve for lunch, but it also makes a great side dish. It’s perfect to serve when entertaining or when you need to bring a dish to a family gathering or picnic.

This gluten-free and vegan salad is packed with so many delicious flavors and is bursting with vibrant color. Yes, it IS a “fiesta” in a bowl! I hope you love it as much as I do.

#ad Picture yourself on campus! A college degree i #ad Picture yourself on campus! A college degree is not out of reach. If you have a dream, you can make it happen. I know from experience. I could not have gotten my degree without loans, grants, and scholarships. It all starts with completing your #FAFSA. And, don't think you make too much money to receive aid. Most people who complete the FAFSA receive some kind of aid! The sooner you complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid, the better. Some states offer aid on a first come, first served basis.
