Feeding a crowd on the holiday weekend
The first long weekend of the summer is finally here! Time to invite all your friends and family over for a backyard barbecue to celebrate. That means you’ll need to feed a crowd – I have the perfect go-to. Made with gluten-free quinoa, this salad is a nutritional powerhouse! Plus, did I say it was super-easy… yah super easy.
I have been a bit obsessed with mango lately… I know they are not local (and never will be in Toronto), but they are in season right now and oh so good. Now add curry, walnuts and the goodness of turkey and canola oil and wow, this is yummy! You’re welcome, enjoy!
