Quinoa Salad
This quinoa salad recipe is a great substitute for couscous when you have to eat gluten free. But I actually don’t miss the pasta, especially when you consider how healthy quinoa is!
Rinse it well and cook according to package directions.
Meanwhile you can prep the other ingredients. Dice either whole tomatoes or cherry tomatoes are a great option too.
When I chop the shallots, I let it mingle with the oil until it’s ready to be mixed into the quinoa salad.
Once the quinoa has cooled, toss it into a bowl with the other ingredients.
When we don’t have fresh parsley, we find it handy to keep these frozen ones in the freezer. Let two of them them thaw and add them to the salad.
A sprinkle of crumbled goat cheese on top rounds out the flavours!
I usually try to get a better picture, but when you’re hungry you know how it goes!

Do you have an alternative suggestion for the allspice as my family doesn’t like it at all.
