Quinoa Citrus Salad instructions
- Start by soaking your Quinoa for about 15-30 minutes. Then rinse it thoroughly. At least 5-6 times to get all the particulate out. Get all your ingredients out so you can prep them while your quinoa cooks then cools..
- Add quinoa to water and bring to a boil. Be sure to cover. Once its boiling turn down to simmer. Let simmer for 15-20 minutes until all water is gone. You want it to be firm not mushy (it should have a little pop when you bite into it.). Then spread it out on a cookie sheet to cool..
- De-vein and small dice the bell peppers. Mince parsley, and slice the green onions..
- Zest the lemon and limes then juice. This can be done on the still warm quinoa..
- Shred and crumble cheeses..
- Make sure quinoa is cool, put in a large bowl then add olive oil, peppers, onions, parsley, cheeses. Mix together with a fork so as not to damage (mash) the quinoa. Salt to taste. Be careful not to over salt. Myzithra is a salty cheese..
