the healthy bird lives on rainbow quinoa salad

health has always been very important to me. eating healthy is just one aspect of leading a healthy lifestyle. here is an easy delicious recipe that can help you on that path.
i started making this delicious quinoa salad at the little bird because visually it is so colorful and beautiful but also because it tastes yummy and is super healthy

1 cup of cooked quinoa
mix of baby red/yellow/orange peppers diced into small pieces
1/4 cup of scallion (chopped)
handful of parsley (chopped)
squeeze 1/2 of   fresh lemon juice
shave one whole lemon zest (the skin of the lemon)
drizzle extra virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon of sea salt

mix all together and chill
then in a large single serving bowl


bed of mixed greens
scoop of quinoa in the middle
2 pieces of avocado
sprinkle sunflower seeds
cracked pepper

Pictures soon to follow as soon as I can figure out how :)
