Questions & Reviews

  1. I have LOVED this salad. So easy to make, soo so yummy. I highly recommend it, and thank you for posting it!

  2. Quinoa is my favorite “super food”! It’s high in protein and low on the glycemic index. It can be adapted to both sweet and savory dishes….LOVE IT!!!

  3. Where is the recipe for this?? I’ve looked on the web AND your cookbook …. My mother-in-law had us buy a 500 pound bag of quinoa and I have no idea what to do with it!! 😉

  4. I have been wanting to try quinoa, but am a little scared. This looks like a good starting point!

  5. This was my first Our Best Bites recipe. I loved it and will probably end up over making it like I do everything I love, but in the meantime, it will be served over torn lettuce from the garden along with grilled pineapple-cilantro-lime chicken. Some might say that’s too many flavors all competing for my attention, but I love it when delicious things compete for my attention.
