In the Kitchen: Cucumber Quinoa Salad


My first "In the Kitchen" post in ages!  Now that I'm a week and a half into my maternity leave, and all the baby-prep stuff is done, I'm finally ready to try out some new recipes.  This one topped my Bloglovin' feed yesterday morning, and I just had to try it.  This salad is perfect for summer, and would be ideal for any potluck you might have coming up.  It was really quick to put together (as long as you remember to cook and chill the quinoa in advance) and tasted wonderful as a side to barbecued pork chops.  Find the full recipe at Gimme Some Oven!

Tip: Rather than make the lemon vinaigrette included with the recipe I made my own using equal parts Tuscan Herb Olive Oil and Sicilian Lemon White Balsamic Vinegar from our local store, Prairie Oils and Vinegars.  It was delicious!
