Many substitutions and additions can easily be made depending on what you have on hand. Cilantro for Parsley, Dried Cherries or Cranberries for fresh Cherries, any color Bell Pepper except green. Cucumber is a great addition mix and match to our taste. Red quinoa for added color. Inspired by Ali Vincent's Mango-Quinoa Salad from BiggestLoser.com
To make cooked quinoa, rinse dry quinoa and then add to a medium sauce pan with broth. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for approximately 12 minutes. Cook until quinoa is tender and fluffy and the water is absorbed.
In a small bowl, combine vinegar, oil and lime juice.
In a big bowl, combine all other ingredients.
Drizzle liquid mixture over the salad, and toss until well combined.
Chill for about an hour.
