About Quinoa lentil salad

Quinoa Lentil Salad is a vibrant, nutrient-packed dish that combines earthy lentils with fluffy quinoa, fresh vegetables, and a zesty, herb-infused dressing. Rooted in Mediterranean and South American cuisines, this wholesome salad typically includes ingredients like cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, red onions, parsley, and a drizzle of olive oil and lemon juice for a bright, refreshing flavor. Rich in plant-based protein, fiber, and essential vitamins, quinoa and lentils provide sustained energy and support digestive health. Antioxidants from vegetables and healthy fats from olive oil make this dish a heart-healthy choice. Naturally gluten-free and versatile, it caters to various dietary preferences, including vegan and vegetarian. While the salad is low in saturated fat, mindful portioning of olive oil and added salts ensures it remains balanced and light. Perfect as a main or side dish, Quinoa Lentil Salad is a delicious way to power your day with nourishing ingredients.
