Complete Protein in a Bowl: Quinoa & Vegetable Salad

Looking for a nutritious fasting meal? Try this vibrant Quinoa and Vegetable Salad that pairs perfectly with a bowl of Lentil Soup. Not only is it delicious and full of fresh veggies, but it also offers a powerful protein punch that’s often missed in vegan diets.

Here’s a nutritional scoop:

Combining different plant-based proteins, like lentils and quinoa, can provide you with all the essential amino acids your body needs. Quinoa is a rare plant food that contains all nine essential amino acids, making it a complete protein on its own. Lentils, rich in lysine, complement grains like quinoa which are lower in this crucial amino acid. Together, they create a synergy that can rival the protein quality found in meat.

This recipe brings the power duo together with a mix of cucumbers, peppers, parsley, and avocado for a meal that’s as wholesome as it is tasty. Topped with ground almonds for an extra crunch and a boost of vitamin E, it’s a feast for the senses and a gift for the body.

A must include in your food box. This is how Candy ready Green successfully transfers lunch to give you strength and energy in the middle of the day.
