More salads - hooray!

It's that time again - salad time!

Now, since the most recent post was on quinoa, I'm sure you can imagine what's coming now - quinoa salad. First up, make some quinoa!

Mmmmm, keen-wha.

Next, you know how I love chopping things up ... veggies, at least. Starting with some fresh romaine, cucumber and tomato!

 Like a monochromatic rainbow, or something.

I like to make my own dressing - honey, vinegar and oil, some spices, occasionally some citrus - keep it fresh and light. I know I am just the luckiest duck to live in California right down the street from a farmers market ... I won't rub it in too much, but really, just the best stuff. When the ingredients are good, stick to the fresh flavors and it makes healthy eating easier.

 That's the ticket.

Once you've added everything you want, give it a toss and consume! Fresh iced coffee and a good book highly recommended. 

Bon appétit!
