The Tri Quinoa Bowl is a nourishing dish featuring three types of quinoa—white, red, and black—paired with fresh vegetables, healthy fats, and a tangy dressing. A balanced mix of textures and flavors, it’s perfect for any time of the day.

Ingredients

  1. 1/3 cup white quinoa
    1/3 cup red quinoa
    1/3 cup black quinoa
    1 avocado, sliced
    1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
    1 cucumber, diced
    1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced
    1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled (optional)
    2 tbsp olive oil
    1 tbsp lemon juice
    1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
    Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Rinse each type of quinoa separately under cold water to remove any bitter coating.

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine each quinoa variety with 1 cup of water (for each type). Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the water is absorbed and the quinoa is tender. Fluff with a fork once cooked.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, avocado, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, and feta cheese.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, balsamic vinegar, salt, and pepper.
  4. Pour the dressing over the quinoa and vegetable mixture, tossing to combine.
  5. Serve immediately or refrigerate for later.

Notes

  1. For added protein, consider adding grilled chicken, shrimp, or tofu.
  2. This recipe is versatile, so feel free to customize it with roasted vegetables like sweet potatoes or bell peppers.
  3. For a vegan version, omit the feta cheese and use a plant-based dressing.
  4. If you prefer a heartier dish, consider adding beans, chickpeas, or grilled meats.
