BRRRR! It’s cold outside!! Hope you are all staying warm!  I spent this lovely Sunday sipping a coconut milk latte and working on some blog related stuff.  It was great!  As you know, Sundays are my meal prep days, and as you also know, I sort of like (LOVE) quinoa salads.  This first quinoa salad I posted was a huge hit.  At a point in time, when you googled “Quinoa Salad Recipes” on google.ca, it was coming up at the top! Crazy! Anyhow, that one was more of a summer recipe with raw veggies in it, but today’s version is a winter quinoa salad.

The most complicated part of this recipe is chopping the vegetables.  You get the point, it’s super easy!! You can mix up the vegetables too, depending on what you’ve got in the kitchen or what you prefer.  I used eggplant, red peppers, mushrooms and onion.  I also loaded it with garlic.

Garlic and onion are natural immune boosters, not to mention they had extra flavour!  With the cold weather, we could all use some immune support, so feel free to go heavy on the onion & garlic! 🙂
