This strawberry and orange quinoa salad is refreshing and perfect on a warm sunny day and a good way to use any leftover cooked quinoa. Perfect for picnics and barbeques and lunch boxes. The ingredients quantities are a guideline only – throw in more or less of what you want. Omit the cheese if making this for vegans. —Bintu
