Directions:
- Place quinoa in a fine-mesh strainer and run under cold running water. Rinse well.
- Add quinoa and water to a small saucepan. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and cover. Cook for 15 minutes until liquid is absorbed. Turn on heat and set aside.
- Meanwhile, prepare vinaigrette. In a large bowl, whisk together lemon juice, mustard, fig jam, and honey. Slowly, while continuing to whisk, add olive oil until vinaigrette is emulsified.
- Add arugula, quinoa, and cherries to bowl. Gently toss and serve immediately.
