This is my favorite quinoa salad-it rocks warm or cooled.
I prefer it without the chicken-and put in chickpeas instead.
2 c cooked and cooled quinoa
2 cups cooked chickpeas or (2 cups chicken breasts, grilled or steamed and sliced thinly)
1/4c currants
1/4c raw almonds, chopped
1/2c carrots, diced
1/4c mint, chopped
1/4c scallions, cut thinly
1/4 c parsley, chopped
1/4c lime
1 tsp agave
1/2tsp ground cumin
1 tsp sea salt
1/2c olive oil
4c salad greens tossed in 2 T of olive oil (optional)
1. If using chicken...steam chicken; cook in 1/2in boiling water in a covered pan for approx 6min
2. put all the ingredients (except the salad greens) together in a bowl-add quinoa and toss. (adjust seasoning if needed.)
3. Put whole mix onto greens.
