About Mediterranean quinoa salad

Mediterranean Quinoa Salad is a vibrant and nutritious dish inspired by Mediterranean flavors. This wholesome salad features fluffy quinoa, a protein-packed superfood, as the base, mixed with fresh cucumbers, juicy cherry tomatoes, crisp red onions, and tangy Kalamata olives. It’s brightened with fragrant parsley and mint, then dressed in a light lemon vinaigrette made with olive oil, known for its heart-healthy fats. Feta cheese adds a creamy, salty touch, enhancing the dish's richness without overpowering its fresh components. This salad is gluten-free and loaded with antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals from its colorful vegetables, making it a balanced choice for vegetarian and plant-forward diets. While nutrient-dense, moderate portions are advised due to the sodium content from the olives and feta. Perfect as a side dish or a light main course, this salad delivers a delicious and wholesome taste of the Mediterranean.
