This salad makes a great appetizer and serving the salad in endive boats makes for a captivating presentation.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup uncooked quinoa, rinsed in a fine-mesh colander
- 2 cups water
- 1 tsp Chalice Spice Vegetable Broth Soup Mix
- 1 can (15 ounces) chickpeas, rinsed and drained, or 1 ½ cups cooked chickpeas
- 1 medium cucumber, seeded and chopped
- 1 medium red bell pepper, chopped
- ¾ cup chopped red onion (from 1 small red onion)
- 1 teaspoon of Chalice Spice Mexican Seasoning
- 1/4 cup of fresh chopped flat parsley
- ¼ cup olive oil
- ¼ cup lemon juice (from 2 to 3 lemons)
- 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
- 2 cloves garlic, pressed or minced
- Chalice Spice Himalayan Pink Salt and Peppercorn, , to taste
Preparation:
- Cook the quinoa by combining the rinsed quinoa, the water and Chalice Spice Vegetable Broth Powder in a medium saucepan.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, then decrease the heat to maintain a gentle simmer. Cook until the quinoa has absorbed all of the water, about 15 minutes, reducing heat as time goes on to maintain a gentle simmer. Remove from heat, cover, and let the quinoa rest for 5 minutes, to give it time to fluff up.
- In a large serving bowl, combine the chickpeas, cucumber, bell pepper, onion and parsley. Set aside.
- In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, vinegar, garlic and salt. Whisk until blended, then set aside.
- Once the quinoa is mostly cool, add it to the serving bowl, and drizzle the dressing on top. Toss until the mixture is thoroughly combined. Season with black pepper, to taste, and add an extra pinch of salt if necessary. For best flavour, let the salad rest for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
- Serve chilled or at room temperature.
Chef's Tip:
Since salad keeps well in the refrigerator, covered, for about 4 days, it is a great recipe to make ahead when you are planning for a large gathering.

Hello everyone my name is Kiara Hahn from California US. I’m here to testify of a great and powerful spell caster called Dr Jakuta. I was so confused and devastated when my fiance left me without a word, I’ve spent the last month crying and feeling guilty. I wasn’t talking to anybody, so one day I search online on love tips because I needed him back desperately and I loved him so much, until I found Dr Jakuta who has solved so many relationship problems then I contacted him and he promised that in less than 72hrs he will come back to me. After I did all he asked, to my greatest surprise my fiance who had refused to speak with me came to my house and asked for forgiveness for all he had made me go through and now we are living happily together, if you have any relationship problem you can contact him Below are his contact details: Email him at doctorjakutaspellcaster24@gmail. com

I got deceived by Aleisha Tony and made to invest over USD380k on BITCOIN and USDT combined on their malicious investment site known as Coinware Global Investment. I’m writing this in tears and urging the general public to beware of them although they continuously change the brokers name on social media to gather more victims as their potential investor and you’d end up losing everything you have because they have no conscience.They only let you go or block you when they have milked everything you own and might go into debt, so that way, they sense you’ve figured out their tactics and tricks and do away with you because no dime would be coming out from your side anymore.
I looked up ways to recover and deal with these evil people and even reported to the authorities with no remedy on sight until I came across a testimony of Refundd Polici Recovery Services by one ‘Wendy Wallace” where she gave them praises after they successfuly recovered her stolen crypto assets and she dropped their contact information as follows

I gave them a trial immediately i came across the testimony and contact details, they asked me to provide details of the said transactions and contacts of the perpetrators of such devilish act, which i did and they swung into action while recovering USD275k of my money which gave me a slight of hope and happiness as i had something to hold unto without losing everything because i gave up and was literally on the verge of giving in on ending my existence cause my husband and kids kept blaming me.

Bitcoin is the world’s most popular Digital Currency, and it has experienced a great deal of turbulence in the past years. Despite the fluctuating market, many users have experienced theft of their Bitcoin assets. Fortunately, it is possible to recover stolen Bitcoins, and there are a few expert teams available to help.
I learned this firsthand, as I was recently the victim of a Bitcoin theft. I was able to recover my stolen Bitcoins with the help of talk2us@sacluxcomptechspecialst.com. John referred me to a team of experts who specialize in Bitcoin recovery.
The team was able to help me trace the stolen funds back to their origin, and then take legal measures to recover them. The first step was to identify the wallet that had received the stolen funds and then take the necessary steps to freeze the wallet. The team was able to freeze the wallet and return the stolen funds to me, which was a huge relief.
The team also provided me with advice and guidance on how to better protect my Bitcoin assets in the future. They recommended that I use a hardware wallet to store my Bitcoin, as well as enable two-factor authentication for my wallet. All thanks to Saclux Comptech Specialst and his team for giving me a reason to smile again. website: https://sacluxcomptechspecialst.com/
