Quinoa and Broccoli Spoon Salad Recipe
"This easy chopped salad fits loads of texture and flavor onto a spoon by combining finely chopped raw broccoli with chewy dried cranberries, crunchy pecans, fluffy quinoa and chunks of sharp Cheddar cheese The mixture is tossed in a punchy mustard vinaigrette that soaks into the florets, only getting better as it sits Feel free to substitute the quinoa for any grain, like brown rice, farro or buckwheat groats, though the cook time may vary. ..."
