Fresh Quinoa Salad
Servings: 1 serving
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup kale, chopped
- 3/4 cup cooked quinoa
- 1/2 cup cucumber, chopped
- 1/2 cup zucchini, thinly sliced
Instructions
- Toss the quinoa and veggies together with your favorite dressing, and serve over the spinach.
Notes
If you’ve never had raw zucchini before, either grate it or cut it into very thin slices, and you can toss it with a bit of salt to soften even more. Putting it together early allows the dressing to soften the zucchini, and flavor the quinoa.
This goes perfectly with the Balsamic-Tahini Dressing or the Lemon Balsamic Vinaigrette.
