Summer Fruit Quinoa Salad

Directions

1. Rinse quinoa well and drain. Bring two cups water to a boil. Add quinoa and stir. Cover and cook for 15–20 minutes, until water is absorbed. Turn off heat and allow quinoa to steam for 10 minutes. Fluff with a fork.

2. Meanwhile, prepare the dressing. In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, orange juice, honey, apple cider vinegar, parsley, garlic, salt, and pepper. Add dressing to quinoa while quinoa is hot (the flavors will penetrate best this way). You will not need all the dressing. Save the remainder for another use.

3. Place quinoa in serving bowl and top with strawberries, blueberries, and mango right before serving.

Tips:

If you prefer your quinoa to be less mushy with grains that are more separate, use 1/4 cup less water than instructed.
