Carrots
Helpful tips on how to choose and prepare carrots for Quinoa Vegetable Salad with Grilled Beef
Selection
If possible, select carrots that still have greens attached, as these tend to keep better. Check the freshness of the carrot leaves, or if the leaves are removed, choose the carrots with the deepest colored peel.
Kitchen Tip
To give your quinoa an added flavor layer, toast it before cooking. Place quinoa into a dry skillet over medium heat, stirring for a few minutes just until it smells "toast."
