Bbq Chicken Quinoa Salad. This Loaded BBQ Chicken Quinoa Salad is one of my favorite make ahead meals!! I throw around the term on brand a LOT! Roast chicken, piles of quinoa and salad all served with creamy avocado, salty feta and a citrus-y lemon vinaigrette!
It has chicken and beans and bacon and corn and roasted red peppers and I can't even think of one more thing that it might.
