Quinoa Waldorf Salad

Foodie Friday

Gluten & Dairy Free

This salad can be either a main course or a desert and has been a hit at all of the Christmas Potlucks that we have been to this year.  So here as I promised the sewing club is the recipe.

Ingredient:

• 1 cup of uncooked Quinoa
• 2 apples
• 2 sticks of celery
• 1 cup coarsely chopped pecans
• 1 Tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 cup chopped seedless grapes (optional)
• Seeds of ½ a pomegranate
• 1 cup whipped coconut cream (click here for recipe)

Directions:

1. Cook the Quinoa as per directions
2. Chop the apples and toss in the lemon juice to prevent discolouring
3. Chop the celery, and grapes
4. Seed the pomegranate
5. Prepare the coconut cream
6. Mix all the ingredients together and refrigerate for at least an hour before serving

Seeding pomegranates – many years ago I learned to do this under water where the white membrane floats to the surface and is easily disposed of leaving the seeds at the bottom of the sink or bowl ready to be used.
