Boring salads have no place in 2020! We are looking for nourishing, filling and flavorful recipes, which is why we created this amazing Harvest Bowl with an Orange Vinaigrette dressing! This bowl is packed with incredible flavors and textures like orange, apples and pecans!
We added quinoa, which gives this bowl more fiber and protein! Did you know that one cup of quinoa contains 8 grams of protein and 5 grams of fiber? It’s also naturally gluten-free, making it a great alternative for those who cannot consume gluten!
