Today I am very excited to be featured over at the Smoothie Lover blog, which is run by the lovely Josefine.
Josefine was one of my first blogging friends, and I immediately warmed to her generous and kind nature. It was a bit scary starting my little site here and putting myself “out there”, so I was very happy to start connecting with other bloggers doing the same thing, and Josefine was one of the most welcoming. I was shocked when after getting to know her and her site a little I learnt that she was still in school – her confidence and maturity, along with her gorgeous photography, recipes and writing would definitely suggest otherwise.
The recipe I am sharing over at Josefine’s page today is for a simple, yet impressive quinoa salad, mixed with some salad greens, creamy feta, and one of my favorite pesto’s.
There’s also a little Q&A that we did about my food philosophy, why I started blogging, and a little about me, my island home, and how I’ll be spending my Christmas.
Head over and check it out now, and be sure to take some time to view some of Josefine’s lovely recipes too, like her Autumn Salad with pomegranate and candied pecans, and Grain-free Apple Pie.
Quinoa Salad with Roasted Carrot and Coriander Pesto

I’m really excited about this recipe. I still have your carrot pesto bookmarked to make and as if it wasn’t appealing enough, you’ve now just made it that much more appealing putting it with quinoa and feta. Delicious!
