Recipe Summary Lemon-Basil Quinoa Salad
Found this and thought I would share since quinoa seems to be becoming so popular. This make-ahead salad (served warm or room temperature) is great for outdoor parties since it won't spoil in the sun.Ingredients | Best Quinoa Salad Recipes
2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1 cup quinoa
1 large lemon, zested and juiced
½ cup roasted red peppers, drained and diced
¼ cup dried cranberries
2 tablespoons minced red onion
2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
Directions
Bring chicken broth and quinoa to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until quinoa is tender and broth has been absorbed, 15 to 20 minutes.
Stir quinoa, lemon zest, and lemon juice together in a bowl. Add red peppers, cranberries, onion, and basil to quinoa; toss to combine.
