I’m not a meal pepper but I love a little side salad ready to go. It pairs great with a protein right off the grill in the summer, or it’s good to smash right on its own after a workout. Feel free to mix up the veggies but here is my go to !
Ingredients:
1.5 cups white quinoa
3 cups water
1/2 cup olive oil
1/8 cup white wine vinegar
S&P
2 Tbsp grated Parmesan
1 15oz. cam drained chickpeas
1/4 cup diced red onion
8oz. cherry or grape tomatoes, halved
1lb. English cucumber, sliced
Instructions:
1. Bring the 3 cups of water to a boil and cook the quinoa according to package he package instructions. Set aside and let cool.
2. In a mixing bowl combine the olive oil, vinegar, S&P, and Parmesan. Add in your cooled quinoa and your chopped veggies. It’s great at room temp or chill it down for later! I believe the best shelf life for this is 3 days but mine never lasts that long anyway. 😂
