Fresh Quinona Veggie Salad

By Reneeb

Preparation

Step 1

In fine sieve under cold running water, rinse quinoa. Drain and place in saucepan along with carrot, celery, turnip and 3-1/2 cups (875 mL) water; bring to boil. Reduce heat; simmer until quinoa is tender and liquid is absorbed, about 20 minutes. Transfer to bowl; fluff with fork and let cool. Add tomatoes, cucumber, onions, parsley and mint.

In small bowl, whisk together lemon juice, vinegar, garlic, salt, pepper and hot pepper sauce; whisk in oil. Toss with salad.

Makes 6 to 8 servings.
