Simple Quinoa Salad

July 9, 2011 By Whitney Young, ND

We had a great open house this past June and our recipes were a hit! Each of our practitioners brought a dish and we gave out the recipes to those in attendance. Here is Katherine Parent (our nutritionist’s) recipe. Her source is www.tablespoon.com

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 cups Quinoa
  • 3 cups water
  • 1 large handful fresh cilantro
  • 2 tbsp of olive oil
  • 1 avocado
  • 1 drizzle of honey or agave nectar (optional)
  • 1 1/2 cups grape tomatoes
  • 1 lemon or lime
  1. First, rinse quinoa thoroughly in a small strainer. Bring 3 cups of water to a boil. Put quinoa in water and reduce heat to simmer. Cover and cook until all water is absorbed (10-15 min).
  2. While quinoa is cooking, halve your tomatoes and cut up your avocado and cilantro.
  3. Once the quinoa is cooked, drizzle with olive oilk and agave/honey and sprinkle with salt and pepper
  4. Stir up the quinoa to release some heat and bring to room temperature.
  5. Sir in avocado, tomato and cilantro, squeeze your citrus over this, toss and enjoy!!
