TUNA, VEGGIE & QUINOA SALAD



Tuna, Veggie & Quinoa Salad image

A simple salad, but full of healthy ingredients. I love this perpared pilaf style (i.e. no dressing), but my hubby prefers it with the dressing. You can switch up the ingredients, too (I do quite often depending on what I have on hand!)
