Quinoa Salad





Quinoa, pronounced kinwa, is very high in protein. So here's a message to all meat eaters: stop looking for excuses. Yes meat tastes great but have it in moderation. Find more nutrition details here . I'll post a different or better pics on the salad when I get around to it next time. Click on the picture to see it larger. Tis way you can get up close for ore detail.


Here's the recipe:


Wash quinoa in filtered water

Cook quinoa just like rice - on a low flame until "al dente"



Add:


Celery - chopped fine

1-2 ripe tomatoes - chopped fine

Parsley - fresh

Olive oil

Red onion - chopped fine

Lemon juice

Salt n pepper or better yet - amino fluid
