  • Rinse and cook the quinoa according to packet instructions and set aside to cool completely. Boil the beets until tender but be careful not to overcook them (check with a fork), drain and leave to cool completely. Peel and cube the beets.
  • Make the dressing by combining all the ingredient. Set aside.
  • Cut both ends off the orange, stand it on one end and slice the skin off downwards all the way around (make sure you also remove the thin, white skin around the fruit). Chop the orange into chunks.
