Directions:
- Whisk all dressing ingredients together in a small bowl. Set aside.
- Cook raw quinoa in a large skillet for 4 minutes over medium heat, stirring frequently.
- Pour quinoa into a sieve and put the sieve in a bowl.
- Add enough water to cover the quinoa and rub the grains between your hands for 30 seconds. Rinse and drain.
- Do this two more times. If you skip this step, your quinoa will be bitter. (If you don't want to go to so much trouble, try making this with couscous instead.).
- In a large saucepan, combine rinsed quinoa with 2 3/4 cups water and 1/2 tsp salt.
- Bring to a boil, cover, reduce heat, and simmer for 20 minutes.
- Bring to room temperature, then stir in remaining ingredients and dressing.
- Cover and chill.
