yummy warm or chilled. You can add some fresh squeezed lemon juice to this also. If no parsley I have made it with chives, and tarragon (fresh)

Stir, let stand, covered, 15 min. Transfer to large bowl; cover and cool in refrigerator for an hour. If you intend to serve warm skip this step.
For dressing: combine oil, vinegar, mustard, salt and pepper to taste in small bowl; use whisk until blended. Pour over quinoa mixture, mix to blend flavors.
When ready to serve: add mango, green onions, cranberries and parsley to quinoa.
Notes
you can add a little mayo (wasabi is good) to this as well, and I may add some agave to the oil/vinegar combo.
