Rainbow Edamame Quinoa Salad
Quinoa salads are a go-to recommendation of mine as a dietitian for friends headed back to school. They are an easy way to get in a variety of nutrients, they store well, and are filling. This Rainbow Edamame Quinoa Salad is a vibrant, nutrient-dense meal that’s perfect for a quick and balanced lunch! Quinoa is a protein-packed grain that's also rich in fiber, making it a great base for this salad. Edamame adds even more plant-based protein, along with essential vitamins and minerals like folate and iron. The colorful veggies—cucumber, red bell pepper, and cabbage—are high in antioxidants, vitamins, and fiber to support digestion and overall health. Paired with Gimme Seaweed Avocado Oil Snacks, which are loaded with iodine and other trace minerals, this salad is a delicious way to nourish your body. Scoop the salad with seaweed for a fun, crunchy twist!
