VEGAN QUINOA SALAD

Toasting the grain before it simmers isn't essential, but it does add a pleasant nuttiness to the flavor of this vegan quinoa salad. Mix and match whatever fresh herbs and veggies you have on hand. -Taste of Home Test Kitchen, Milwaukee, Wisconsin

VEGAN QUINOA SALAD WITH VEGETABLES

This is a very versatile salad that I often make for potlucks or as a side for barbecues. You can switch out the vegetables to your liking. I've made also it with tomatoes and sauteed mushrooms. You can eat it right away while still warm or chill for a few hours for flavors to combine.

Remove from heat, cover, and let the quinoa rest for 5 minutes, to give it time to fluff up.
  • In a large serving bowl, combine the chickpeas, cucumber, bell pepper, onion and parsley. Set aside.
  • In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, vinegar, garlic and salt. Whisk until blended, then set aside.
