About Salad with quinoa
Salad with quinoa is a wholesome, nutrient-packed dish inspired by South American and Mediterranean cuisines. The base features fluffy quinoa, a protein-rich ancient grain, combined with crisp greens like spinach or kale. Fresh vegetables such as tomatoes, cucumbers, and red onion add vibrant color and crunch, while ingredients like chickpeas or avocado boost its heart-healthy fats and fiber content. Often dressed with olive oil, lemon juice, and herbs, it provides a light yet flavorful balance. Quinoa is a complete protein, making it an excellent choice for vegetarians and vegans. Rich in vitamins, antioxidants, and minerals like magnesium and iron, this salad supports energy levels and overall health. However, the addition of calorie-dense extras like cheese or creamy dressings could increase fat and sodium content, so opting for lighter toppings ensures a nutrient-dense meal. This salad is versatile, refreshing, and a perfect addition to a health-focused diet.
