Organic Quinoa Salad

1 cup quinoa grain
2 cups water

100 g parsley and mint
100g cherry tomatoes

dressing

100 mls olive oil
300 mls water
50 mls balsamic vinegar
1 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
1 dessertspoon apple concentrate

Rinse the Quinoa grain well under running water (this is beacuse there is a bitter coating on the grains) Bring to the boil then simmer checking after twenty minutes quarter tomatoes, chop mint and parsley add the dressing ingredients and let stand for 30 minutes.
This is a lovely simple salad that works really well with a combination of different herbs so have fun with it, adding sundried tomatoes, olives, fetta cheese, toasted seeds, the list is endless…
