About Lentil and quinoa salad

Lentil and Quinoa Salad is a vibrant, nutrient-packed dish inspired by Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisine. It features protein-rich lentils, fluffy quinoa, and a colorful mix of fresh vegetables like cucumber, tomato, and red onion. Enhanced with a zesty olive oil and lemon dressing, it’s often garnished with fresh herbs, such as parsley or mint, for an aromatic touch. This salad is a powerhouse of nutrition, offering plant-based protein, dietary fiber, and essential vitamins and minerals like iron and magnesium. It's gluten-free, heart-healthy, and packed with antioxidants. While naturally low in fat, those watching sodium intake should be mindful of dressing ingredients or added seasonings. Perfect as a light meal or side dish, Lentil and Quinoa Salad combines wholesome goodness with bold flavors, making it both satisfying and nourishing for a variety of diets.
