Quinoa Salad with Vegetables and Tofu is a nutritious and balanced dish inspired by modern health-focused cuisine. Packed with protein-rich quinoa and tofu, this salad features a vibrant mix of fresh vegetables such as bell peppers, cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, and leafy greens, all lightly tossed in a tangy vinaigrette or zesty lemon dressing. With roots in South American cuisine, quinoa is a gluten-free grain that's rich in fiber, essential amino acids, and minerals like magnesium and iron. The tofu adds plant-based protein while remaining low in saturated fats, making it a heart-healthy choice. Fresh vegetables contribute vitamins, antioxidants, and hydration, enhancing overall wellness. While nutrient-dense, the salad remains low in calories and can fit into vegan, vegetarian, or gluten-free diets. For those monitoring sodium or sugar intake, ensuring the dressing is made from wholesome ingredients is key.
