Quinoa Tomato Salad Recipes
ZESTY QUINOA SALAD
This bright and colorful salad is a great summertime recipe (or anytime you want to feel like it's summertime). Light and citrusy, it's a whole new way to enjoy quinoa. Lime juice and cilantro give a refreshing kick, while quinoa and black beans provide tasty vegan protein. If you're not vegan, add even more protein by adding chunks of chicken or turkey. Yum!

QUINOA TOMATO SALAD
I had this in the bistro part of an organic food store in Colonia many years ago, and it was so good and simple that I've made it over and over again since then. In place of the large chopped tomatoes you can use halved cocktail tomatoes, too. You'll notice that I don't tell you to rinse the quinoa before cooking to remove bitter taste. I've done that for years until I once forgot to do it and realized that it didn't taste bitter at all. Since then I've never again rinsed the quinoa before cooking, and it never tasted bitter. Not sure if it's just the quinoa we get here, so feel free to rinse your quinoa anyway, it sure won't hurt - I'm just being lazy :) Cooling time is not included in cooking time!

Steps:
- Cook the quinoa in the vegetable stock for 10-15 minutes or until quinoa is tender. I found that sometimes the quinoa absorbs all the liquid and sometimes not, seems to depend on the quinoa.
- Pour the cooked quinoa into a sieve and let cool to room temperature.
- Chop onion, sprinkle with salt and add red wine vinegar. Let stand until quinoa has cooled to room temperature.
- Add olive oil to the onion and vinegar, then add quinoa.
- Chop tomatoes and add to the quinoa.
- Add pepper to taste, mix well and serve either at room temperature or chilled.

- To cook the quinoa: Combine the rinsed quinoa and the water in a medium saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, then decrease the heat to maintain a gentle simmer. Cook until the quinoa has absorbed all of the water, about 15 minutes, reducing heat as time goes on to maintain a gentle simmer. Remove from heat, cover, and let the quinoa rest for 5 minutes, to give it time to fluff up.
- In a large serving bowl, combine the chickpeas, cucumber, bell pepper, onion and parsley. Set aside.
- In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, vinegar, garlic and salt. Whisk until blended, then set aside.
- Once the quinoa is mostly cool, add it to the serving bowl, and drizzle the dressing on top. Toss until the mixture is thoroughly combined. Season with black pepper, to taste, and add an extra pinch of salt if necessary. For best flavor, let the salad rest for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.

- First rinse and drain your quinoa using a mesh strainer or sieve. Bring a small pot to medium heat and lightly toast the quinoa to remove any excess water. Stir as it toasts for just a few minutes. This step is optional but really adds to the nuttiness and fluff factor of the quinoa! Next add your water, set burner to high, and bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce heat to low and simmer, covered with the lid slightly ajar, for 12-13 minutes or until quinoa is fluffy and the liquid has been absorbed.
- To make the dressing, combine avocado oil (or healthy oil of your choosing) with fresh lime juice, minced garlic, parsley, cumin, salty and pepper.
- Once your quinoa is ready, fluff with a fork and allow to cool (I usually pop mine in the fridge or freezer for a few minutes to cool it) then combine with tomatoes, green onion, chickpeas, and any extra parsley you'd like! I usually add 2-3 TBSP of extra parsley - I love the flavor! Toss salad with half of the dressing and dive in! Drizzle extra dressing on the salad as desired and feel free to add any additional seasoning to taste.
