Quinoa Confetti Salad

This was my tasty lunch today!  Quinoa has a lot of protein in it, and it can really fill you up.  Here’s the recipe:

2 Cups Cooked Quinoa (cook is in chicken or vegetable stock for more flavor)

Lemon Juice to Taste (1-2 Tbsp)

2 Tbsp Olive Oil (optional)

Salt (to taste and optional…I don’t use it in this)

1/2 Tsp Garlic Powder

1/2 Cup Thinly Sliced Celery

1/2 Cup Chopped Tomatoes

1/2 Cup Corn

1/4 Cup Chopped Green Onions

1/2 Cup Chopped Parsley

Combine quinoa, lemon juice, salt, olive oil, and garlic powder.  Mix in the veggies.  Enjoy it just like that, use it as a dip, or top it with goat cheese, pine nuts, and/or avocado.
