LEMON BASIL QUINOA SALAD

Nice light salad with a punch of protein from the quinoa. I like adding chopped mango or small mozzeralla balls to the salad for added kick depending on my mood. Extra dressing is great for marinades or additional salad dressing.

Found this and thought I would share since quinoa seems to be becoming so popular. This make-ahead salad (served warm or room temperature) is great for outdoor parties since it won't spoil in the sun.
