This recipe is an easy healthy, family-friendly option for the summer. The quinoa offers an alternative to pasta for a summer salad that is packed with protein. Healthy vegetables such as kale, tomatoes, and cucumber give it versatility and the curry powder and crumbled feta add a Mediterranean twist.
