Protein Egg and Quinoa Salad Jars

This protein-packed vegetarian salad made with quinoa, lentils, grape tomatoes, arugula, avocado and hard boiled eggs are perfect to pack for work, the beach, picnics, or anywhere you need a portable lunch on-the-go!

This was inspired by a similar lunch I had in Manhattan. It was so delicious and simple I made it the next day and shared it with my cousin, who loved it! I made a simple lemon vinaigrette and placed the avocados in the bottom of the jar to keep them from browning and it worked like a charm. I usually cook up a batch of quinoa to throw in salads throughout the week and bought cooked lentils from Trader Joe’s which made this salad come together quick. Perfect for vegetarians who are always looking for ways to get more protein in their diet or anyone who wants to incorporate more plant based foods in their diet.
