Follow this detailed recipe to create a delicious and nutritious quinoa salad that everyone will love. Instructions: Rinse the quinoa under cold water using a fine mesh sieve to remove any bitterness. In a medium saucepan, bring the broth to a boil. Add the rinsed quinoa, reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the quinoa is tender and the liquid is absorbed. Remove from heat and let it sit covered for 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork. While the quinoa is cooking, prepare the vegetables. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cherry tomatoes, cucumber, bell pepper, red onion, parsley, and mint. Once the quinoa is cooked and slightly cooled, add it to the bowl with the vegetables. In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper to make the dressing. Pour the dressing over the quinoa and vegetable mixture, and toss until everything is well combined and evenly coated. If desired, add crumbled feta cheese and chopped almonds for extra flavor and texture. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed, then serve immediately or refrigerate for later. This salad can be served warm, at room temperature, or chilled. Enjoy this nutritious and delicious quinoa salad as a wholesome meal or side dish, and feel good knowing you're fueling your body with wholesome ingredients. #Quinoa #Veggies #LemonDressing #FetaCheese #HealthyEating #QuinoaSalad #NutritiousFood #CleanEating #SaladRecipe #EatClean #HealthyRecipes #VegetarianFood #MealPrep #FoodPhotography
