Lemon Scented Quinoa Salad


By Chow Times (Visit website)



Minoo also incorporated a salad recipe using grain for the Gilmore Park Church Community Kitchen to complete the meal.



This Lemon Scented Quinoa Salad is nutty and packed with a lot of nutrition. For me, this salad itself can be a lunch which is quite filling.


Ingredients



1 cup quinoa, rinsed thoroughly (about 5 times)
2 cups water
salt
1 can chick peas, drained and rinsed
1/2 cup cilantro, chopped
1/2 red onion, sliced thin

Tahini Lemon Dressing



1 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 cup tahini
1 lemon or vinegar of your choice
4 tablespoons Greek style yogurt (make your own by draining organic plain yogurt overnight in a cheese cloth)
hot water
salt and pepper to taste
