Description

What do you get when you mix an Israeli salad with quinoa? A big bowl of awesome!

Ingredients

  • ½ cups Quinoa
  • 1 cup Water
  • 2 stalks Scallions
  • ½ whole Cucumber
  • ¾ whole Tomato
  • ½ whole Lemon
  • 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 1 pinch Salt
  • 1 pinch Pepper

Preparation

Begin by rinsing the quinoa with water three times. You want to wash the bitter coating off the quinoa granules.

Then add 1 cup of water to the 1/2 cup of quinoa in a small pot and bring to a boil.

Once the water is at a boil, turn down the heat, cover, and cook the quinoa for 15 minutes until all the water has been soaked up by the quinoa.

While the quinoa is cooking, go ahead and finely chop the vegetables.

Start with the scallions. Cut in half lengthwise and then dice. Add to a bowl.

Then cut the cucumbers into eighths and then dice. Add to scallions in the bowl.

Core and deseed the tomato and cut into a small dice. Add to the bowl.

At this point the quinoa should be done. Cool by spreading quinoa on an aluminum foil covered cookie sheet.

Once the quinoa has cooled, add it to the bowl of vegetables. Add the juice of half a lemon, a few tablespoons of olive oil, a pinch of salt and a few crackles of pepper. Let the salad marinate for 30 minutes and enjoy!

To make this a lunch salad, add some chickpeas and crumbled feta cheese!
