This is an unusual and tasty high-protein grain salad. Quinoa is a grain that has almost no flavor, but the spices add zest. It's well worth trying, I make it often since discovering quinoa at my health food store.

Quinoa - an ancient food from South America - is actually a seed. But it counts as a whole grain and is featured in the Latin American food pyramid. Its golden color and nutty flavor make it a perfect partner for smooth and creamy avocados. You'll find quinoa in your supermarket with other grains. Avocados are another favorite from South America and found in the pyramid. Serve this as a side, a salad or a main dish. And take a look at the nutrition analysis – only a few calories, no cholesterol and little sodium, but with monounsaturated fat, protein and fiber!

This is a tuna salad that makes those of us who love the veggies happy! Even people who don't normally like tuna will generally like this one. Serve on pita, or on your favorite bread or roll. Stuff a tomato, bell pepper, or zucchini with the blended salad. This makes 4 sandwiches or 2 generous salad servings.
