Amandas Quinoa Salad

This is my stepdaughter Amanda’s concoction, I had it once and was hooked! Keep it in the fridge all the time!

Step: 1

Bring water and quinoa to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until quinoa is tender and water has been absorbed, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer quinoa to a bowl and fluff with a fork.

Step: 2

Stir mango salsa, green onions, cranberries, sunflower kernels, champagne vinegar, and French vinaigrette into the quinoa. Cover bowl with plastic wrap.

Step: 3

Refrigerate salad at least 4 hours before serving.
