1. Quinoa
Quinoa is actually a vegetable from the beet and spinach family but it can act as the perfect gluten-free grain base for your salad.
Quinoa is high in protein, essential fatty acids, magnesium, iron, potassium, copper, zinc, and minerals. Quinoa cooks up in about 15 minutes and is very versatile. Add it to soups, salads or any meal where you would use rice. Always cook extra and keep it in the fridge.
