With the nice weather here this week-we have been busy hitting the playground and back yard! But I did take the time to sprout some quinoa. I say take the time-almost tongue in cheek, as these little nutrional powerhouse grains sprout overnight! And this tastes great too!
Tabbouleh
1 c sprouted quinoa
1/4 c olive oil
3 T lemon juice
1 t salt
cucumbers, tomatoes, red onions and at least 1/2 c parsley.
This tastes better if you make it and then let it sit or marinate for at least a half an hour.
If have a raw recipe to share this week-leave a link to your raw post in the comments or just type it out sand add it to the comments. Thanks!!
Gorgeous. That looks so good!
Kristen, this is a gorgeous salad! So colorful and tasty looking! I am now inspired to sprout quinoa — is it easy to do? I’ll check google to see how-to.
Thanks for the idea — beautiful salad!
I’m also inspired, I had just read another recipe using quinoa so it was on my list to try.
Anyway here’s my recipes for the week

Kristin,
About how much quinoa would you sprout to get 1 cup? About 1/3 cup? This is something I have not tried but it looks wonderful.

I used 1 c dry and it about doubled. Glad you liked the dip. You will love this sprouted quinoa-it’s really refreshing.
