Day 3: Quinoa Party Salad
This is my all time favorite recipe. The thing I bring to most potlucks and the most viewed post on my blog. It was even in Clean Eating Magazine!!
I can not say enough how good this is. Fresh flavors, perfect for anytime of year (but really darn good on a hot summer day with light beer) and if you’ve never made it please do.
