Ingredients

1 cup quinoa

2 T Olive Oil (the best you can afford)

2 fresh limes, juiced

1 clove garlic minced

2 green onions (scallions)

2 or more sprigs of mint fresh

1/2 c parsley (more or less)

Directions

I still put the quinoa in a strainer and run under cold water. Then cook till spiral separates. Make sure it is tender not chalky. Put on a plate to cool. In a bowl or storage container mix the OO, lime juice and garlic. Finely chop mint and parsley. Clean and make two pieces of the green onion the long way. Slice the green onion whites if half circles and the green in narrow circles. ( I am fussy about this part because my tummy cares) Let sit in fridge....even over night.
