Mango & Quinoa Salad

Leave a comment

Some days are naturally busy, and taking the time to prepare an elaborate meal is a luxury that I just don’t have. Cubing up a mango and tossing it with mixed spring greens with a big scoop of quinoa is the perfect solution on days when I need something light so that I can keep moving.

Ingredients:

  • 1 Mango, cubed
  • 1/4 cup chilled al dente quinoa
  • 2 cups spring greens
  • drizzle good quality balsamic vinegar
  • drizzle good quality olive oil

Toss everything together and you’ve got lunch. Although I really wish I’d also had some avocado on hand, because that would have been blissful in this salad.
