SPICY QUINOA SALAD WITH BROCCOLI, CILANTRO AND LIME
The grassy flavor of quinoa works well with cilantro in this main-dish salad. I love the versatility of quinoa. It can be the building-block ingredient for a salad, as it is in this main-dish salad, or it can be added to salads in smaller amounts, almost as a garnish. Its grassy flavor marries well with cilantro, itself an herb with a grassy, though more pungent, taste. I added sieved hard-boiled eggs for protein - though you could leave them out if you want to make a vegan version of this dish, and toasted pumpkin seeds for crunch. Another ingredient that contributes crunch as well as color is the soaked split red lentils. They also contribute more protein to an already high-protein grain. They are optional - make this salad whether or not you have the lentils.

ZESTY QUINOA SALAD
This bright and colorful salad is a great summertime recipe (or anytime you want to feel like it's summertime). Light and citrusy, it's a whole new way to enjoy quinoa. Lime juice and cilantro give a refreshing kick, while quinoa and black beans provide tasty vegan protein. If you're not vegan, add even more protein by adding chunks of chicken or turkey. Yum!
