CALIFORNIA QUINOA
I'm always changing this salad up. Here I used tomato, zucchini and olives for a Greek-inspired salad. Try adding a few more favorite fresh veggies you know your family will love. -Elizabeth Lubin, Huntington Beach, California

[email protected]This recipe was too spicy for me, but I think that's because I used a spicy salsa. Next time, I'll use a milder salsa.

[email protected]This recipe was a bit bland, but I think that's because I didn't add enough seasoning. Next time, I'll add more salt and pepper.

[email protected]This recipe was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I think that's because I used a spicy salsa. Next time, I'll use a milder salsa or maybe add some sour cream to cool it down.

[email protected]Easy to follow recipe with delicious results. The quinoa was cooked perfectly and the veggies were still slightly crunchy. I added a bit of extra lime juice and cilantro for a more zesty flavor. Overall, a great weeknight meal!
