Ensalada de Quinua, or Quinoa Salad, is a vibrant dish rooted in South American cuisine, particularly popular in countries like Peru and Bolivia where quinoa has been cultivated for centuries. This nutrient-packed salad typically includes fluffy cooked quinoa mixed with fresh ingredients such as diced tomatoes, cucumbers, onions, bell peppers, and cilantro. Additional elements like avocado, black beans, or feta cheese may be added for extra flavor and texture. Quinoa is a standout feature, hailed as a superfood for its high protein content, essential amino acids, and dietary fiber, making the salad both filling and nutritious. Rich in vitamins and minerals like magnesium, potassium, and iron, it supports heart health, digestion, and energy levels. Typically dressed with olive oil, lemon juice, or balsamic vinegar, the salad avoids heavy sauces, keeping it light and wholesome. Low in unhealthy fats, it’s a great choice for a balanced, health-conscious meal.
