QUINOA SALAD WITH DRIED FRUIT AND NUTS



Quinoa Salad with Dried Fruit and Nuts image

This is an unusual and tasty high-protein grain salad. Quinoa is a grain that has almost no flavor, but the spices add zest. It's well worth trying, I make it often since discovering quinoa at my health food store.
