Veggie Quinoa Salad Meal-To-Go: Vegetarian, Dairy Free & Gluten Free

 

 

A simple healthy lunch to go or dinner to go can be yours with a small amount of time the night before to pack it.  Quinoa is the quickest ingredient to cook and everything you put with it tastes fantastic. The recipe takes under 20 minutes to put together and once done provides you with 4 servings.  You can certainly have more than one in your meal-to-go, totally up to you. :)

Making a recipe that provides a  few days of left overs for lunch is what I live for! Adding the balsamic dressing into the salad the night before is wonderful since the flavors will have time to gel and get delicious for you the next day.

I made this last week for my homeschool co- op day and always feel happy when my packed lunch is the envy in the parents lounge! It smells amazing and tastes even better!

About Brenda

Hi! Welcome! My name is Brenda and I am a mom to 3 beautiful children, a puppy and a picky husband who I absolutely adore after almost 15 years! Over the course of the last 25 years of my life, (Yikes I'm feeling OLD!) and numerous diet failures, yo-yo-ING weight, crying and praying to God for a solution to maintain a healthy weight and stop the cravings, I have come to the decision that I simply cannot have certain sugars in my life! (To read my full story see, MY SUGAR-FREE JOURNEY.) YES, it is true, no white sugar and other products that contain it. BUT that has not stopped me from enjoying this life! My passion is cooking and I love entertaining friends and family, which makes it pretty cool that I can always try out new, healthy (insert sneaky laugh here) recipes on them!! SO finally after quite some years experimenting and creating recipes without white sugar and white flour, and receiving requests for these very recipes, this blog has come to be! If you are a woman who has recently lost weight and desires to maintain it, you will find encouragement and fabulous recipes here! If you a mom who is struggling to take that baby weight off, you will find help here! You may not even need to lose weight but you desire healthier recipes for yourself and family, you are at the right place! If you still desire to get to that goal weight (yep, that's me!) but still love to entertain (me again!) and don't know what to make, seek no further-- Sugar-Free Mom is the site for you my friend! Come on in and enjoy! Blessings, Brenda
