Looking for a great quinoa salad recipe? Quinoa (pronounced “keen-wa”) is one of my new favorite super foods! I get a huge bulk bag at Costco.  My favorite thing about quinoa is that you can make it taste like whatever you are putting in it. Some of my new favorite ingredients combine salty, vinegar, sesame, and garlic, which make for a wonderful tangy taste for this quinoa recipe…hence “Tangy Quinoa.”

The “dressing” I make to go over this is actually my favorite part–I could drink it! (In fact, I did when I was testing the measurements!) It would go great on a kale or collard green salad too.  The acidity in the dressing will work great to break down the greens.

In my opinion, this quinoa recipe tastes better the next day, and I think it’s best served cold.
