Zesty Cilantro Quinoa Salad

While at work on Friday I picked up the newest Vegetarian times, June 2011. On page 55 there is a 28-day eat green challenge. This peaked my interest, while I'm not entirely sure I'm ready to go a full 28 days without meat, I do want to explore more vegetarian and vegan dishes. So, for dinner tonight...

  2. I keep gravitating back to this - I love all things cilantro and this just looks tastier and tastier each time. :)
