I had this salad at John's aunt and uncle's anniversary party in New York and it was amazing. John's cousin Chuck had made it and gave me the recipe at the party because I wanted to make it for our People of Praise picnic the next day. He told me the ingredients and I was able to remember it (that's amazing!). It was really good. I had to use regular quinoa but the red quinoa is better. Also I substituted orange juice for the citrus juice mixture and it was just as good. Here it is:
2 cups cooked red quinoa
1/2 cup diced apples with skins
1/2 cup diced celery
1/2 cup sliced raw amonds
1/4 cup green onions, thinly sliced
1/4 golden raisins (I actually used cut-up dried cherries)
1/2 cup diced red pepper
Dressing: (makes enough for two recipes)
1/3 cup olive oil
2/3 cup grapefruit, orange, and lemon juice (I used all OJ)
1 T. pure maple syrup
1/2 t. cinnamon
1 1/2 t. curry powder
pinch of salt
Mix together salad ingredients. Mix together dressing ingredients and whisk. Pour over and chill.
