The picture didn’t turn out so well, but this is really really good.  And healthy.  Try it.  cheapnyummy: found this on the back of a box of quinoa and just made it.  I added some things and it is SO GOOD.You’re welcomeIngredients: TECHNICALLY 1 1/2 cups of quinoa but the stupid company who made my package AS well as the recipe for this salad only included 1cup in the package.  So 1 cup or whatever.3 cups veg. broth1 bunch cilantroa bunch of chopped asparagus, quickly steamed in the microwave (this is a very specific recipe, obviously). A couple zucchiniAlfalfa sprouts (I used a whole package)Onion sprouts (again, a whole package)2 chopped cloves of garlicOlives, if you like.  I used kalamata, because they are my favorite. Olive oil and vinegar if you like.  I only used raspberry balsamic vinegarAlso this would be great with some feta or goat’s cheese, but I forgot.Bring veg. broth to a boil.  Add in the quinoa and reduce heat.  Let cook (about 20-25 minutes). Chop up everything else, put in a big bowl.  Find a bigger bowl because the first one you grabbed was to small. put quinoa on top, toss.  Add a bit of vinegar or whatever. Super tasty, surprisingly hearty, and makes 4 tupperware containers worth (so there we go lunch for the rest of the week).  Also if you really wanted to BAM this up another notch, you could toss in cooked chicken or something for protein.
