HONEY LIME QUINOA FRUIT SALAD

Quinoa, strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, and mango combine in this incredible salad.  The fresh fruit and quinoa are glazed with a honey lime dressing and it will be a hit wherever it goes! I am obsessed with fresh fruit.  Our fridge is always full of fresh ready to eat fruit.  I would honestly eat fruit over candy and chocolate any day.  I am loving all of the fresh fruit at our local market right now and it is perfect for making a fruit salad.

One of my favorite salads on the blog is this Honey Lime Poppyseed Fruit Salad.  The honey lime glaze add the perfect flavor to the fruit.   I decided to make this salad but add some quinoa.  Quinoa not only adds a yummy texture to this salad, but has so many health benefits and added protein.

INGREDIENTS
