Quinoa Fruit Salad

Category: Quinoa recipes / Salads
Preparation Time: 5-10 mins  
Cooking Time: 15 mins
Servings: 2 servings

  Quinoa (pronounced KEEN-wah) is an excellent complete protein source for vegetarians. It is not only healthy but also very easy and quick to cook. 

Quinoa with fruits

This quinoa salad is a quick fix breakfast option if we have the cooked quinoa in hand. Quinoa can be cooked in stovetop or pressure cooker.   
                                           
Please refer my detailed post on how to cook quinoa in instant pot and stovetop here: How to cook Quinoa in Instant pot & Stovetop?

For this quinoa fruit salad, we can use any seasonal fruits available. Here I have used apples, raisins, pomegranates and walnuts. We can use any fresh fruits, dry fruits and nuts. The type & amount of fruits can be altered as per our liking :)
                                        
I haven't used any dressing in this salad but if we prefer, we can add honey-lime dressing. 

Ingredients: 
  • Quinoa, cooked - 1 cup 
  • Green apple, chopped - 1/2 cup
  • Red apple, chopped - 1/2 cup
