Recipes Salad Grains Quinoa Salad Recipes Vegan Quinoa Salad with Vegetables 4.7 (3) 3 Reviews 2 Photos 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.
