Warm Quinoa Salad with Butternut Squash and Pistachios recipe
Warm Quinoa Salad with Butternut Squash and Pistachios – loaded with butternut squash, red onion, cranberries and mâche lettuce leaves and dressed with simple orange juice and olive oil dressing. Only 10 ingredients, but the salad is so wholesome, vibrant and flavorful! Moreover, with its super healthy ingredients, this salad offers a healthy reprieve after a long winter of comfort foods.
For this recipe, I roast butternut squash with red onion and garlic. Meanwhile, I cook quinoa in a vegetable broth. Cooking in broth is the easiest way to give quinoa more flavor. Then I make a simple dressing, combine all ingredients with mâche salad and I am ready to go. If mâche salad is not available, try purslane. This packed with protein, fiber and nutrients salad comes together swiftly because so much is made at the same time.
