Vegetable Salad

Recipe and picture by Steven Wright :)

Just made my version of a veggie salad that I saw someone post here. Tomato, cucumber, radish, green onion, carrots in a dill ranch dressing. 
I used ranch dressing made with yogurt (Boathouse Farms from Publix) added a teaspoon of dill, chopped green olives and zest of a whole lemon.
The yogurt dressing drops it from 120 calories to 45 per 2 tablespoon serving. I figure a 1 cup serving of the salad is about 50 calories. It's a nice fresh cool side to a meal.

Quinoa Salad

- salad pictured is without the quinoa added! -

1 cup quinoa
1 cup edamame
1/2 red bell pepper
1/2 yellow bell pepper
1/2 green bell pepper
1 tomato
1/2 cucumber
Salt and pepper to taste
2 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp lemon juice
1 tbsp fresh lemon zest (grate the lemon zest off the lemon you used for the juice but watch out not to grate the pith which tastes bitter)


Boil the quinoa according to instructions! 

Chop up all the other ingredients and put them all in one large bowl. Drizzle the olive oil and lemon juice in, add the quinoa after it has cooled off, stir all together and put in the fridge for at least 2 hours to let it chill and to let the flavors mix together. Enjoy!
