QUINOA SALAD WITH CHICKEN, ALMONDS AND AVOCADO RECIPE ...
Tricolor quinoa combines the tenderness of white quinoa with the pop of the red and black grains. All soak up a Dijon-sherry vinaigrette in this blend of chewy tangy cranberries, crunchy salty almonds, creamy avocado and refreshing parsley. This salad —tasty warm, at room temperature or cold — is a great way to use up leftover or rotisserie chicken. It’s perfectly satisfying without the chicken, too, if you’re vegetarian.
