Quinoa Salad
Ingredients
1-1/2 C. quinoa
3 C. water
1 green bell pepper, chopped
1 red bell pepper, chopped
1/4 C. scallion, chopped
1/4 C. red onion, chopped
1/4 C. dill, cilantro, or parsley finely chopped
1 recipe savory salad dressing, or honey-vinegar dressing
freshly ground pepper to taste
Cooking Instructions
Rinse the quinoa well before cooking to remove its slightly bitter coat. Place the quinoa and water in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, cover, reduce the heat, and simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the liquid is absorbed. Combine the chopped vegetables in a bowl, including the fresh chopped herbs of choice. Mix well. Add the cooked quinoa. Toss gently and add dressing of choice. Toss again and add pepper to taste. Cover and chill for at least 2 hours before serving.
