This quinoa and edamame salad is a superfood dream! Packed full of flavor and nutrients, you will want to make this time and time again! This salad can be made as a main dish, side dish, potluck, or meal prep — it's pretty much a perfect salad. I've been guilty of making this last minute and serving it immediately without chilling. It is still amazing.
