Things to Make - Super Easy Arugula/ Quinoa Salad

salad (1 of 1)

I find it tricky/impossible to eat healthy at the end of the summer - kids 24/7, combined with happy hours, barbeques, and various vacations leads to lots of pizza and chips. So yet again, this August, my overall health/weight/fitness level has taken a nose dive. But at least I have managed to eat one incredibly easy salad over and over. The creaminess of the yogurt counters the pepper flavor of the arugula, making this salad quite powerful for such a quick lunch. Seriously, try it.

ARUGULA/QUINOA SALAD


Ingredients:

* 1/4 cup cooked quinoa (I cook a whole bag and refrigerate the leftovers so I always have some ready to eat).
* 1 cup arugula
* 1/2 cup plain goat's milk yogurt (or plain greek yogurt)

1. Combine
2. Eat

Variations
* Add sunflower seeds
* Add sliced avocado
* Add lemon zest or lemon juice to the yogurt for some added flavor.
