Caramelized Fennel and Black Quinoa Salad with Mozzarella, Black Olives, and Basil
Black quinoa has a bit of an earthier flavor and crunchier texture than white quinoa and it pairs really well with different variations of roasted vegetables. This quinoa salad puts sweet roasted and caramelized fennel wedges front and center, complementing them with the gentle creaminess of mozzarella and the salinity of black olives. It’s salty, tangy, herbaceous, and creamy all at once. Serve warm or chilled. Slideshow: More Quinoa Recipes
