Pesto, broccoli and quinoa salad





This salad is heavenly! There are so many flavours in there and it's a great way of using pesto opposed to the usual pesto and pasta combination! The pesto from this recipe could be combined with an abundance of other foods though so definitely try come up with some other inventive pesto recipes! One thing I love about this salad is the combination of hot and cold. The entire dish could be eaten cold if you prefer, or if you have leftovers. 

Shop bought pestos are not very healthy as they are absolutely packed with oil. This pesto recipe only uses 1 tbsp oil for 2 people and absolutely does not compromise on taste. It really is a much healthier option.

Smoothie Saturday!

I absolutely love starting my day with a smoothie. Packed full of fruit, you know they are full of goodness and will help start your day off right. Here I show you two smoothies, one a deep red colour and the other green.
