\nWhen I find myself in New York, I always go to Whole Foods Market (see the report HERE<\/a>) where they offer improbable salads that turn out to be very good every time (considering the price, it’s normal!). I offer you my version of one of these salads. The taste is unique and at first sight very surprising. But we quickly become addicted to this sweet and salty taste and to the mix of textures: the nuts are crunchy, the candied orange brings softness. All this with freshly chopped coriander and a little turmeric. It is simply addictive and above all very original! And moreover it is the occasion to use the quinoa differently… And with the beautiful days coming back, it’s the opportunity to put some pep in the picnics! <\/div>\n

\nHere is the quinoa for those who do not know it yet…! One of my favorite foods!<\/i><\/div>\n
\n

\n<\/i><\/a><\/div>\n


<\/i>
\n<\/p>\n

\n<\/i><\/a><\/div>\n
\n
<\/i><\/div>\n
\nBring salted water to a boil, then add the quinoa and let it cook for 16 minutes, stirring from time to time.<\/i><\/div>\n


<\/i>
\n<\/p>\n

\n<\/i><\/a><\/div>\n
\n
<\/i><\/div>\n
\nDrain (in a fine sieve as the strainer would let the quinoa grains through).<\/i><\/div>\n


<\/i>
\n<\/p>\n

\n<\/i><\/a><\/div>\n
\n
<\/i><\/div>\n
\nRinse with cold water to cool all the quinoa. <\/i><\/div>\n


<\/i>
\n<\/p>\n

\n<\/i><\/a><\/div>\n
\n
<\/i><\/div>\n
\nDrain well, then transfer to a container and add the dried fruits: pecans, slivered almonds, grapes, candied oranges, cranberries, pumpkin seeds.<\/i><\/div>\n


<\/i>
\n<\/p>\n

\n<\/i><\/a><\/div>\n


<\/i>
\n<\/p>\n

\n<\/i><\/a><\/div>\n


<\/i>
\n<\/p>\n

\nAlso add the olive oil. <\/i><\/div>\n
\n
<\/i><\/div>\n
\n<\/i><\/a><\/div>\n
\n
<\/i><\/div>\n
\nOrange juice and honey.<\/i><\/div>\n


<\/i>
\n<\/p>\n

\n<\/i><\/a><\/div>\n
\n
<\/i><\/div>\n
\nAdd salt, pepper and garlic powder (easily found in grocery stores Maghrebian or Asian).<\/i><\/div>\n


<\/i>
\n<\/p>\n

\n<\/i><\/a><\/div>\n
\n
<\/i><\/div>\n
\nAdd also the turmeric. <\/i><\/div>\n


<\/i>
\n<\/p>\n

\n<\/i><\/a><\/div>\n
\n
<\/i><\/div>\n
\nMix well. <\/i><\/div>\n


<\/i>
\n<\/p>\n

\n<\/i><\/a><\/div>\n


<\/i>
\n<\/p>\n

\nI didn’t use too much cilantro, a tiny bunch is enough. <\/i><\/div>\n


<\/i>
\n<\/p>\n

\n<\/i><\/a><\/div>\n
\n
<\/i><\/div>\n
\nChop it finely and add it to the salad.<\/i><\/div>\n


<\/i>
\n<\/p>\n

\n<\/i><\/a><\/div>\n


<\/i>
\n<\/p>\n

\n<\/i><\/a><\/div>\n
\n
<\/i><\/div>\n
\nMix well, it’s ready! Simply chill for two hours before serving. Of course, you have to taste to adjust the salt and pepper and to your own taste for the dosage of fruits. <\/i><\/div>\n


<\/i>
\n<\/p>\n

\n<\/i><\/a><\/div>\n
\n
<\/i><\/div>\n
\nServe small portions without overcrowding. <\/i><\/div>\n
