FAQs
Is this salad vegan?
Yes. The recipe uses chicken broth, but you can substitute vegetable broth. Avocado, quinoa, tomato, cucumber, olive oil, and lime juice are entirely plant-based.
How long does quinoa salad keep in the fridge?
Store in an airtight container for 3–4 days. Add avocado just before serving to prevent browning. Dressing keeps separately for up to a week.
Can I use canned quinoa?
Yes, canned quinoa saves time. Rinse and drain it, then skip the 15-minute simmer. You'll need about 2 cups cooked quinoa.
What makes avocado a weight-loss food?
Avocado's fibre and healthy fats increase satiety, reducing overall calorie intake. One avocado contains 10 grams of fibre and potassium.
