I love the flavor of corn and basil together. Ingredients:
3 cups water |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 1/2 cups quinoa, thoroughly rinsed |
2 cups fresh corn (frozen is okay) |
1 cup fresh basil, tightly packed, finely chopped |
1/2 cup diced roasted red pepper |
1/2 cup finely diced red onion |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
3 -5 tablespoons fresh lemon juice |
Directions:
1. Bring water to a boil. Add quinoa and simmer for about 11 minutes.
2. Add corn and cook another 1 to 3 minutes.
3. Transfer quinoa and corn to a bowl. Stir to fluff and set aside to cool.
4. Stir in basil, red peppers, onions, and olive oil. Add salt if needed. Stir in lemon juice to taste.
