After washing the quinoa add it into a large pan on medium heat. Toss for about 10’ for the humidity to be removed and to get a nice golden colour. They will also start to pop once ready.
In the meantime, place a medium pot on high heat, half filled with water. Once it boils add the quinoa and simmer for 8-9’ with the lid. Don’t overcook, you want the quinoa to be crunchy. Completely drain the quinoa and let stand until it completely dries.
Make the dressing by adding in a medium glass bowl the lemon and salt. Slowly pour the oil and which to be emulsified.
We build our salad by adding all the greens into a salad bowl. Pour the dressing and mix well. Add the tomatoes and the quinoa and mix gently. Taste and add more salt or lemon if needed.
