Hello, friends! It’s hump day, and its also new recipe day on Hey, Haley! I shared on Instagram yesterday a little about how my last few weeks have gone, so I’ll recap here today. For the past 6-8 weeks, I’ve had some food problems. I’m not sure what the exact causes are or how to fix it quite yet, but I’ve had a lot of stomach pain and discomfort with almost everything I’ve eaten. I was very specific about this week’s recipe because this has always been a safe food for me, giving me energy without causing any specific problems. All that to say, I’d appreciate prayers as I get things figured out soon!
It is week 5 of #hhtries52 and I’m sharing one of my most used recipes. The general idea for this recipe came from a friend a few years ago, but it has grown and developed over the years into this (pretty much) perfect meal. I love to make a huge batch of this quinoa salad and eat it cold for lunch and dinner for several days. I may have even eaten it for breakfast! This salad (if I can even call it that, it really does seem more like a pasta salad) is refreshing, healthy, and filling. It is packed with protein, veggies, and is overall just what I need more of in my diet. I hope you’ll feel the same!
Cucumber, bell peppers, feta
