Georgia Pecan Confetti Quinoa
Description
Created by Carolyn O'Neil, M.S., R.D., and co-author of "The Dish on Eating Healthy and Being Fabulous!" Georgia Pecan Confetti Quinoa is a satisfying salad without any greens. Quinoa is a delicious gluten-free grain that cooks up light and fluffy like rice but contains more protein.
