Quinoa is a great side dish or salad for any meal. I sometimes substitute the corn here for a firm mango, finely diced.
Directions
For the Salad
1. Rinse the quinoa well under cold running water and cook according to package directions. Let cool and fluff with a fork.
2. Heat a pot of water to a low boil and blanch frozen peas for a few minutes, just until they turn brighter in color. Strain. Add to cooked quinoa along with the remaining salad ingredients.
For the Dressing
1. Mix all dressing ingredients and pour over quinoa.
2. Toss to mix and let marinate in the refrigerator for a minimum of 3 hours.
