Kid Friendly Lunch: Quinoa Salad

written by Catherine April 14, 2011

Have you served quinoa in your house? If you haven’t I would recommend it. It’s a fun shaped grain so kids will love it. Quinoa is packed with protein and fiber so it is a great addition to any meal. Also it is versatile. What more could a mom ask for?

What’s on the Plate: Roasted Red Pepper Quinoa Salad with Chicken and Feta.

Motherhood is a jungle so we have to keep evolving and learning from the everyday.

I have had quinoa! It is really good, I especially like it with grilled veggies, but this recipe looks great and like something my kids may even eat. 🙂

My girlfriend mixes quinoa with a bit of kale, sesame oil, carrots and a bit of chicken and beef to make it more “palatable” for me. I am a carnivore and I can’t function without my usual serving of meat. 🙂
