Quinoa is basically an edible seed that is grown in the form of crops. Quinoa is very popular for its nutrient composition.

It has quite a favorable amount of amino acids, calcium, phosphorous and iron.

Having read a lot about quinoa, I was ready to make a recipe by using veggies and quinoa.

I wasted no time and immediately ordered quinoa online and within days, I got my pack of quinoa.

I thought of pairing quinoa along with paneer so that Grilled Paneer Quinoa Salad tastes more tender and yummier.

The best part is that for making this Salad is that I have kept oil in check.

Instead of using the usual oil, I have carefully used extra virgin olive oil so that Quinoa Grilled Paneer Salad becomes more salubrious. I have grilled the paneer instead of frying it, you see!

If you want to give a fruity twist to quinoa, you could try making Quinoa Apple Pear Salad with Honey Mustard Dressing as well.

Both of these salads can be served even during parties, your guests will surely admire that you are health conscious.
