New Pinterest recipes that I have tried ... quinoa







I wanted to make two quinoa salad recipes last weekend so I looked over on Pintrest and pinned a few to try ...

These are the ones I used ... 

Moroccan Carrot & Quinoa Salad | happy hearted kitchen




And here is mine :-)


Recipe for Moroccan Carrot and Quinoa Salad ... very tasty.

The Happy Hearted Kitchen blog looks to have lots of other delicious recipes too :-)



Then I made a Mediterranean Quinoa Salad from Closet Cooking
