Cranberry and Cilantro Quinoa Salad

Salad

I got this cranberry and cilantro quinoa salad recipe from the restaurant my dad built. I love the unique way of cooking the quinoa and the great combination of flavors.

Ingredients

1 ½ cups water
1 cup uncooked quinoa, rinsed
1 small red onion, finely chopped
½ cup minced carrots
½ cup dried cranberries
¼ cup red bell pepper, chopped
¼ cup yellow bell pepper, chopped
¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro
¼ cup sliced almonds, toasted
1 lime, juiced
1 ½ teaspoons curry powder
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Description

Bring water to a boil, covered, in a saucepan over high heat; add quinoa. Reduce heat to low; simmer quinoa, covered, until water has been absorbed, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer to a bowl; refrigerate until cold.
Stir in red onion, carrots, cranberries, red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, cilantro, almonds, lime juice, and curry powder; season with salt and black pepper. Chill before serving.
