There are more and more vegetarian restaurants in Beijing, and one is said to have been in business for 14 years. It is difficult for my mother to eat out at ordinary times, so we bring my mother to this place to eat vegetarian dishes every Chinese New Year. Every time you come to this restaurant, you must order a vegetable and nut salad, a plate of red and green dishes, sprinkle some nuts sporadically, and quinoa, which is very popular nowadays, which is not convenient for the price of 48 yuan. After eating too many times, I also figured out the mystery of this-the dishes are in season and can be adjusted according to the seasons. The main thing is the sauce, sweet and sour with salty, appetizing and relieving greasy. I will show you how to do it in a while. "

Quinoa Vegetable Salad

1. Wash the bittern, lettuce, and cucumber;

2. Wash radishes, cherry tomatoes, and blueberries; prepare some dried fruits and nuts; the dried fruits I use are ready-to-eat in bags, which contain large peaches, cashews, walnuts, cranberries, blueberries, and raisins. You can also match them as you like ；

3. Cut sowcory into inch sections, cut lettuce into large pieces, and cut cucumber into thin slices diagonally

4. Cut the radish into thin slices, cut the cherry tomatoes in half, cut the strawberries into 4 petals, and put the dried fruits and nuts in the pot;

5. The three-color quinoa is ready, and the amount is not fixed. I used 80 grams of dried quinoa, washed it twice with cold water, and boiled it;

6. Pour in the right amount of passion fruit vinegar. This cold dish has a refreshing taste with various fruit vinegars, and it complements the sweetness of strawberries, cherry tomatoes, and dried fruits; do not use aged vinegar that has heavy color and strong taste , There is really no fruit vinegar that can be replaced with white rice vinegar and a little sugar; this is also the reason why the vegetarian dishes in restaurants are refreshing and appetizing;

7. Then pour in the right amount of olive oil. Olive oil has the effects of softening the cardiovascular and cerebrovascular and lowering cholesterol. Adding some when making cold dishes can also help increase the brightness of the dishes; sprinkle a little salt and mix evenly before eating.

8. Quinoa vegetable salad, appetizing and clearing the stomach!

Tips:
1. Vegetables and fruits can be adjusted according to the seasonal vegetables throughout the year. The amount of quinoa can be more or less, but it must be cooked thoroughly before use to prevent the vegetables from being hot and discolored;
2. Mixing vegetable and fruit salad with fruit vinegar is more effective than aged vinegar.
