Quinoa Salad

Happy Friday, everyone! Summer is sadly coming to an end. However, the weather these past few days has screamed summer. I don't know about you, but when it's so hot outside, I prefer to eat cold foods. Today, I made the perfect cold lunch that would also be wonderful as a side dish! Not to mention delicious and healthy. Vegan, gluten free, and dairy free. Here's the recipe!



Ingredients (serves 1):

3/4 cup quinoa, cooked (I had it cold, but it would work warm as well.)
Vegetables of your choice, chopped (I used what I had in my fridge: broccoli, spinach, peas, tomato, 
     and garlic. Any vegetable would work: green peppers, avocados, onion, kale, carrot, cucumber...
     GET CREATIVE!)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
Salt, pepper, cayenne pepper - to taste. (Get creative with your spices, too!)

Simply mix it all up, and ENJOY!
