Ingredients

  • ½ cup quinoa
  • 2 cups water
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 bunch turnip greens finely chopped
  • 2 cups finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley from 3 bunches
  • ¼ cup finely chopped fresh mint
  • 8-10 cherry tomatoes halved
  • ½ seedless cucumber* peeled, cored, and cut into ¼-inch pieces
  • 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • ¾ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  • Pour the quinoa into a fine mesh colander and rinse under running water for at least 30 seconds. Drain well.
  • Combine the rinsed quinoa and water in a saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, then decrease the heat, cover, and simmer.
  • Cook until the quinoa has absorbed all of the water, about 10 to 20 minutes.
  • Remove the pot and let the quinoa steam for 5 minutes. This step gives the quinoa time to pop open into little curlicues, so it’s nice and fluffy.
  • Remove the lid and fluff the quinoa with a fork.
  • Transfer quinoa to a bowl and toss with remaining ingredients until combined well.
