  1. carol REVIEW:

    this is so good! i added more garlic,red cabbage, grape tomatos and feta.

  2. anon REVIEW:

    Very, very good. I've made it a couple of times and am here to get the recipe again.

  3. Guest Foodie REVIEW:

    This salad delicious. It is light and refreshing compared to the typical summer potatoe salad. I suggest placing the cooked quinoa in the refridge for 30 minutes before adding to salad. It allows for the grains to seperate. Awesome!

  4. Guest Foodie REVIEW:

    This is a wonderful recipe. I always add some sundried tomatoes. Yum!

  5. Guest Foodie REVIEW:

    This salad is so easy to make and so delicious! I use green onions instead of red onion sometimes, red pepper along with green (for color). It's always terrific.

  6. Guest Foodie REVIEW:

    This is amazing! It's so simple and very good for you. I always keep the dressing the same, but play with the rest of it a big - add chickpeas, basil, feta, extra garlic... It's super easy and always a hit - and I've shared the recipe with lots of people who love it!

  7. Guest Foodie REVIEW:

    Tasty and easy! I used red bell pepper instead of green and added some broccoli. It was wonderful!!

  8. Guest Foodie REVIEW:

    My whole group loved this salad. It's easy to prepare and simply delicious. I'm asked to bring it every time we meet!

  9. Guest Foodie

    Wonderful, tasty salad, and easy to prepare. Highly recommended.

  10. Guest Foodie REVIEW:

    This was outstanding. Both the young teachers in my class and the folks at the technology center where I work loved this. I added feta cheese as well.
