Ingredients

1 cup quinoa, dry
1 1/2 cups water
1/2 cup orange juice
1 cup dried cranberries
2 Tbsp olive oil
1 Tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp coriander

1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp cracked black pepper

Directions

Rinse the quinoa well.

In a sauce pan combine the quinoa, water and orange juice and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for about 10-15 minutes or until liquid has been absorbed. Fluff with a fork.

Fold in the dried cranberries, transfer to a bowl and refrigerate until chilled.
