Quinoa Salad

Quinoa is hailed as a miracle grain for being one of the few non-meat foods providing all the essential amino acids (eight of them) that our bodies need to repair themselves. In addition it's a good source of fiber and protein while being low in calories. If you try to eat it on it's own, you won't be impressed. It takes a good recipe to get this to taste like something you'd actually want to eat!
