Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 cup quinoa
  • 1 1/2 /2 cups water
  • 2/3 /3 heaping cup cherries quartered
  • 2 teaspoons fresh Rosemary chopped
  • 1/2 /2 cup Blue cheese crumbles
  • 1/2 /2 cup chopped walnuts
  • 1 lemon juiced
  • 1 small shallot chopped (~3 Tablespoons)
  • salt to taste
  • Drizzle of honey
  • handful of arugula optional

Instructions

  1. Bring quinoa and water to a boil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Reduce heat to low-medium and let simmer for 15 minutes, covered. Remove from heat and let sit for 5 minutes, fluff. Let cool slightly. *If your quinoa has different instructions, go with them.
  2. Toss together cooled quinoa and remaining ingredients: cherries, rosemary, walnuts, lemon juice, shallot, and salt; drizzle honey. Toss in blue cheese at the end to prevent clumping. You may want to toss the arugula in a drizzle of olive oil if adding.
