Summer Quinoa Salad
/
This quinoa is super easy & so delicious! Now all of the other ways that I make quinoa are boring compared to this one. I used the spinach basil hemp seed sauce that I had been using on pasta and just added it in with quinoa to make for a yummy side to any meal. I paired this throughout the week with chicken, added it on salads, or just ate a big bowl of it. This is light & refreshing too which I love for this hotter months.
