6 servings
- •¼ cup pine nuts
- •1 cup quinoa
- •2 cups water
- •sea salt to taste
- •¼ cup fresh lemon juice
- •2 stalks celery, chopped
- •¼ red onion, chopped
- •¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
- •½ teaspoon ground cumin
- •1 bunch fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
- Toast the pine nuts briefly in a dry skillet over medium heat. This will take about 5 minutes, and stir constantly as they will burn easily. Set aside to cool.
- In a saucepan, combine the quinoa, water and salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium and cook until quinoa is tender and water has been absorbed, about 10 minutes. Cool slightly, then fluff with a fork.
- Transfer the quinoa to a serving bowl and stir in the pine nuts, lemon juice, celery, onion, cayenne pepper, cumin and parsley. Adjust salt and pepper if needed before serving.
