Ingredients

The following ingredients have 5 Servings
  • 1 cup quinoa
  • 1/2 teaspoon olive oil
  • 1/2 cup sweet onion (diced)
  • 1 cup ham (diced)
  • 1 cup frozen peas (thawed)
  • 4 Tablespoons yellow mustard
  • 5 Tablespoons honey
  • 2 Tablespoons white vinegar
  • 5 Tablespoons organic canola oil
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper

Instruction

  • Rinse the quinoa and place in a pot along with two cups water and the 1/2 teaspoon of olive oil. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and cover. Cook for 15-20 minutes until water is absorbed and the little ring around the quinoa loosens.
  • While the quinoa cools, mix the dressing. Place the mustard, honey, white vinegar, canola oil, salt, and pepper in a glass jar with a lid and shake to combine.
  • Put the cooled quinoa, onion, ham, and peas in a large bowl and mix together.
  • Add half of the dressing and stir to coat all ingredients.
  • Serve with more dressing on the side. Store leftover salad and dressing separately in the refrigerator so that you can add more dressing the next day for more flavor.
