Best Parsley Quinoa Salad Recipes
PARSLEY WALNUT PESTO QUINOA SALAD
A seriously amazing and fresh salad; the epitome of healthy and nutrition-packed. I served this over fresh baby kale with balsamic dressing on the side for those that want a more robust flavor. This is amazing with the addition of garlic! Serve cold or at room temperature.
