Quinoa and Fresh Veggie Salad good in the fridge for up to a week
To prepare quinoa- rinse it well with a fine mesh colander and let all of the water drain. Add the rinsed quinoa to a pot and double the amount of liquid 2:1 ratio to the quinoa.
1. Bring chicken broth to a boil in a 2-quart sauce pan and stir in the quinoa
2. Reduce heat to low and simmer for about 15 min until all the liquid has absorbed and the little "tail" of the quinoa has sprouted out
3. Let stand for 5 min then fluff with a fork
4. In a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lime juice, vinegar and cumin
5. Add green onions, red pepper, cilantro, corn and beans, and toss to coat
6. Add to the bowl with the vegetables and mix well
7. Season with salt and pepper to taste and serve at once or refrigerate until ready to serve
** Tip: Chop all the veggies to approximately the size of the black beans.
