Quinoa Salad

A healthy alternative to rice or cous-cous, Quinoa (keen-wa) is a grain packed with nutritional value, read more about it here.

My favorite way to enjoy quinoa is by preparing a salad using cooked quinoa, black beans, garbanzo beans, corn, red onion, green pepper, red pepper, garlic, grape tomatoes, broccoli, olive oil, vinegar, oregano, salt and pepper to taste.
Be sure to head on over to Michael's at Designs by Gollum for this weeks Foodie Friday. Then be sure to checkout Ann's Food on Fridays by clicking here.


Have a wonderful weekend!
