This Quinoa Salad is very light and refreshing. It’s one of the perfect salad recipes to make ahead for nights when you want to grill out, or to take along for a picnic or potluck, or to bring to work for a fresh lunch. This quinoa salad can be adjusted to your own taste, so don't be afraid to experiment. A great addition would be grilled chicken.
