Healthy and delicious, this quinoa salad was a hit with my family. What a great way to add some vegetables and healthy grains to your diet without going overboard! And the divine tahini dressing is the perfect way to bring all the wonderful flavors and textures of this salad together.
Cook quinoa according package directions. Transfer to a medium sized bowl, an set aside.
Make tahini dressing by whisking together the tahini paste, lemon juice, garlic and salt. Add water as needed to thin out the dressing to desired consistency.
Add remaining ingredients to quinoa, and then stir in the tahini dressing. Toss well to combine. Season with salt and pepper as desired. Serve warm or chilled.
