Quinoa salads are the best! They're so easy to make, and you can vary up the theme based on what you have on hand. They're a great vessel to carry multiple veggies helping you achieve a rainbow and hit your plant points. Plus, quinoa is a high-protein grain-like seed containing all 9 essential amino acids. Fantastic for meal-prep day because these salads hold well in the fridge all week and even absorb more flavors as they sit. Fantastic for plant-based diets, but everyone loves these!
Greek Quinoa Salad is a favorite because I happen to love kalamata olives and basil. Put them together with quinoa, a lemony dressing, red bell pepper, cucumber, and parsley, and that's about it! I add hemp seeds for additional protein and healthy fats. Not too dissimilar tasting to Tabbouleh, but then I add Tofu Feta and it's suddenly a Greek salad.
Green Quinoa Salad is a great dish to have on a detox-cleanse diet. (Read more about my Cleanse plan here). One serving gives you 10 different plants, utilizes whole foods, 5 grams of fiber and 17 grams of protein. You can through over a bed of fresh greens for an even larger filling meal pumping up the chlorophyll from the salad greens.
All ingredients are low-FODMAP in the servings suggested. It's also naturally gluten-free, as opposed to Tabbouleh, which just uses wheat semolina (pasta). Very low in sugars and high in protein and healthy whole-food based fats. Try Greek Quinoa Salad today!
