Instructions

Step 1

Make the quinoa: combine the quinoa and water in a sauce pan and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer (medium-low), stir the quinoa, then cover it and cook for 10 to 15 minutes until all of the water has been absorbed.

Step 2

Remove it from the heat, let it sit for 5 minutes, then fluff it up with a fork. Cool the quinoa a bit before making the salad. The quinoa can be made several days in advance and kept in the fridge if needed before using.

Make the dressing

Step 1

Combine the yogurt, tahini, lemon juice, and a pinch of sea salt in a bowl and whisk until smooth. Thin the dressing out with a bit of water if it is too thick. Set aside.

Make the salad

Step 1

Combine the quinoa, snap peas, radishes, and parsley in a bowl.

Step 2

Pour over about half of the dressing, then toss to combine. Taste the salad and add more dressing or sea salt if desired. Enjoy at room temperature or chilled. Makes 3 to 4 main dish servings or 6 to 8 side servings.
