Gluten-Free, Vegan, Quinoa Pilaf/Salad


OMG, I can't believe I invented/made this in under an hour. It is so delicious!!


QUINOA PILAF/SALAD




Ingredients:

1 cup white quinoa
1 cup tricolor quinoa
1/2 large yellow onion, minced
1 - 15 oz can garbanzo beans (chickpeas), drained
1 large fuji apple cut into 1" shoelace strips
1/4 cup cider vinegar
sprinkle mild curry powder
drizzle olive oil


Rinse and begin boiling quinoa (in 3 cups water) with your desired amount of salt. 

While it simmers, mince 1/2 an onion, put it in a large mixing bowl and add garbanzo beans (drained) and cider vinegar. 
Sprinkle with mild curry powder, stir and set aside. 

Now, cut the apple into little short strips, and add to the onion mixture. 

After the quinoa finishes cooking, let is rest for about 5 minutes, mix it in with all the rest, drizzle in some olive oil (1/4 cup MAX!) and mix some more. 

Rather than use a lot more olive oil, if desired, just drizzle some over each serving before you gobble it up. 

Super Yummy!
