Comment préparer Cranberry Orange Quinoa Salad

  1. Rinse 1 cup of quinoa thoroughly under cold water and drain.
  2. In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed quinoa, 2 cups of water, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
  3. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes, or until all the liquid is absorbed.
  4. Once cooked, fluff the quinoa with a fork and spread it in a thin layer on a baking sheet to cool completely.
  5. While the quinoa cooks, prepare the orange vinaigrette: In a small saucepan, simmer 1/2 cup of orange juice over medium heat for 10 minutes, or until reduced by half.
  6. Remove from heat and let cool for 5 minutes. Then, whisk in 1/4 cup of olive oil.
  7. In a large bowl, combine 1 cup of dried cranberries, 1/2 cup of raisins, 1/2 cup of chopped nuts (such as pecans or walnuts), 1/2 cup of segmented orange slices, and the cooled quinoa.
  8. Pour the orange vinaigrette over the mixture and stir gently to combine.
  9. If desired, stir in 1/4 cup of fresh chopped mint.
  10. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld before serving.
  11. Serve chilled. Enjoy this delicious salad on its own, with whole-grain toast, or alongside leafy greens!
