Here it is my absolute favorite summertime salad. This. Is. Amazing. I could eat this all summer every day. I will warn you it will go fast so don't expect to have left overs! This is refreshing and loaded full of flavor - especially if you are using organic fruit -I mean WOW! I can't explain why but the white quinoa just doesn't pull this one off so I recommend sticking with the red quinoa.Have a cookout planned this summer? Make this!
