This gluten-free, high-protein grain salad, like my usual tabbouleh, is based on Jane Brody’s excellent recipe in The Good Food Book.

Recipe ingredients

Fresh juice of ½ lemon

3 tablespoons olive oil

¼ teaspoon each ground cumin and dried crumbled oregano

Large pinch salt

Pinch each ground allspice and coriander (optional)

Black pepper to taste

1 cup quinoa, steamed and cooled

1 large yellow tomato, diced

4 scallions, sliced

1 large handful each parsley, cilantro and mint, finely chopped

 

Recipe directions

In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, oil and seasonings. In a medium bowl, toss the quinoa with the tomato, scallions and herbs. Drizzle with dressing.
