Warm Quinoa Salad With Winter Vegetables

    Category :

    I make different versions of this warm salad and it is my most favorite quinoa dish!

    What you’ll need:

    • Cooked Quinoa – 1 1/2 to 2 cups
    • Beets Cubed – 2 to 3 medium sized
    • Fennel Sliced – 2
    • Beet Greens – From the beets
    • Fennel Leaves – From the fennel
    • Orange segments – from 2 fresh oranges or 1 can
    • Walnuts pieces – 1/2 cup
    • Mango Chili Vinaigrette – From Trader Joes (use any vinaigrette to your liking)

    Method:

    1. Drizzle a small amount of oil and Roast the Beets and Fennel (oven or stove top works).

    2. Saute the Beets and Fennel greens in a little oil.

    3. Layer everything over the cooked Quinoa. Drizzle the vinaigrette.

    This is the other version that I make with Roasted Butternut Squash, Sauteed Swiss Chard, Cranberries (sometimes Apples), Almonds and Orange vinaigrette.
