▶️ METHOD:

Thoroughly rinse quinoa until the water runs clear. The soak for 30 minutes. Once soaked strain throughly and transfer to a small pot. Add water, cover and bring to a boil. Then reduce the heat and cook for 10 to 15 minutes or until the quinoa is cooked. Once cooked, right away transfer to a mixing bowl and spread it thin to allow it to cool down.

Rinse the vegetables and lettuce with water and pat dry. Shred the lettuce 1/2 inch thick and chop the remainder of the vegetables. Once the quinoa has cooled down completely, top it with the chopped veggies, cover and chill it in the refrigerator until ready to use. This will keep the vegetables will remain crisp and fresh.

To prepare the salad dressing - Add red wine vinegar, olive oil, maple syrup, minced garlic, salt, dry oregano, black pepper to a small jar. Mix well to combine. Set it aside. 👉 ADJUST THE VINEGAR AND MAPLE SYRUP in the salad dressing TO YOUR TASTE.

✅ NOTE: Add the salad dressing little at a time to the salad and taste as you go. Do not add the entire salad dressing at once. Remember you can always add more dressing but cannot remove it once added :)

When ready add the salad dressing and serve.

▶️ IMPORTANT TIPS:

👉 Shred the romaine lettuce about 1/2 inch thick

I'm subscribing to your channel. I'm desperate to be healthy, but I think vegan is the answer. Both of my parents had dementia, so I quit my job and took care of them. Last year, they both passed away after 3 months. It was stressful. My parents passed away, and my body and heart aches a lot. I have a brain aneurysm on my head and two brain aneurysms. I even had hypothyroidism, so I suddenly gained 15kg. Anxiety disorder Panic disorder I'm still suffering from insomnia. It's been a year since my parents passed away, but I'm still in treatment, but it hasn't been long since I started again. I started YouTube, took a walk, and went on a trip because I had the courage to share and communicate. Now I want to be healthy. I hope everyone watching this video is healthy. Please take care of your health first.
