Spanish Quinoa - Spiced
Serves 4 |
Prep Time 10 minutes |
Cook Time 25 minutes
Ingredients
14 1/2 ounces Eden Organic Diced Tomatoes w/Green Chilies, drained, reserve liquid
2 cups water, including drained tomato cooking liquid
1/2 tsp Eden Sea Salt
1 clove garlic, minced
1 1/2 cups any Eden Organic Quinoa, washed and drained
1 small cucumber, seeded and diced, peeled if waxed
1 avocado, seeded, peeled and diced
1/2 cup fresh cilantro, minced
or fresh parsley
1/3 cup red onion, minced

Directions
Drain the tomatoes, place the tomato liquid in a measuring cup and add enough cold water to equal 2 cups. Bring the tomato/water mixture, sea salt and garlic to a boil. Stir in the quinoa and return to a boil. Cover and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes until the quinoa is tender and most of the water has been absorbed. Turn off the flame and let sit, covered, until all of the water is absorbed, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a large serving bowl and fluff up.
Gently toss in the remaining ingredients, including the diced tomatoes, using enough lime juice to give the salad a pleasant flavor.
