My first time using quinoa! This has got to be one of the best tasting taco salads I’ve ever had. It was all we could to do not eat it all up in one night! The flavor was absolutely great. This will definitely be in on the regular rotation from now on.

great recipe.
made this as a side dish for fish tacos.
adjustments I made were: I subbed chipotle chile powder and added fresh corn. also subbed pico de gallo for the tomatoes (I had a big tub in the fridge).
next time i make this I am going to add diced mango to cut the heat a little.

I printed this recipe forever ago and FINALLY made it over the weekend. I wish I would have made it sooner. I made it exactly and it was sooo good. Way better than the quinoa salad they sell at Whole Foods.

All of the flavors really came together in this dish in an amazing way! I loved it, and the avocados on top were just perfect.

We made this last night (without the spinach) and it was a good side dish to the spicy black bean burgers we were having. We didn’t have tomatoes so we omitted those and added some fresh corn instead. It was great!

This was fantastic!! I made it exactly as written and wouldn’t change a thing. Can’t wait to have leftovers for lunch tomorrow!

This has quickly become a staple in our family dinners! I usually make these into tacos (using corn tortillas), and they are absolutely scrumptious.

This is one of my favorite new recipes! The flavor and texture are great and it’s so nutritious. Even my 3-year-old will eat it (as long as I top hers with plenty of cheese.) ;o)

One change I always make is instead of roughly cutting the spinach as shown in the photo, I pull off the stems (yuck) stack the leaves, roll, and slice just as you would chiffonade basil.

I made this for dinner tonight. I was very flavourful and I felt good eating it

I’m not a fan of tomatoes so I put in some corn instead and grated just a smidge of cheddar on top. It was a very satisfying meal. Thank you for sharing.
