Also, this Radish & Tangerine Quinoa Detox Salad is the perfect way to kickstart your healthy eating goals!
Now that the weather is starting to get (slightly) warmer, this Radish & Tangerine Quinoa Detox Salad is great for spring and summer! It’s also a great winter to spring salad, because to be honest this whole it’s still winter with hints of spring thing has me confused about what to eat. Winter squash? Spring produce? But not really?
This quinoa detox salad is mixture of both seasons: sweet potatoes, tangerines, fresh radishes, greens, and quinoa!
AND the best part is that it can be made in about 30 minutes! Personally, I love making this salad in bulk and keeping it in the fridge for quick and easy meals throughout the week. I’m working on those #MealPrep goals, ya know? 😉

It’s not just the colors that are inviting me to dig in, it’s also the ingredients. You’ve added so many of my favorites and I just don’t make quinoa often enough. This recipe is perfect for a great lunch. Thank you for sharing.
Christine McMichael replied:
Thank you, Marisa! I like to make quinoa in bulk and keep it around for quick and easy recipes. Otherwise I probably wouldn’t make it very often, either! Enjoy the recipe!

Wow, this sounds both healthy and tasty. I really enjoy radishes and I know they are really healthy for you.

Byron Thomas says:
It’s the radish that caught my attention with this recipe. I love radishes, probably a little too much. Ha! I’m serious, I usually just wash them real good and eat them with hummus. And, of course, we always add them to our salads for extra crunch and a wonderful peppery flavour. Salad looks so good!
Christine McMichael replied:
Me too, Byron! Ooooh, that’s such a great idea! I will definitely have to try that, too. Thank you!
