Asian Quinoa Salad | Plated

This meal was our Vegetarian option, and our first time really trying quinoa. For this meal, we would be cooking the quinoa in coconut milk (instead of the standard water or chicken broth.) I adore chickpeas, spinach and snap peas so I was quite excited about the veggies in this meal.

Our veggies... and fresh ginger.
