Quinoa Tabbouleh
From CSA Farmers Market
<p>This is a great side dish. It’s quick. Even quicker if you use leftover cooked quinoa. It’s a great make ahead dish. Also a good choice for a potluck or picnic because it’s good cold or at room temperature.</p>Source: my daughter-in-law got it from my daughter who cut it from a magazine and we all tweaked it here and there.
