Quinoa, Corn, and Tomato Salad With Chive-Infused Oil image

This is from Cooking Light, via myrecipes.com. It is a light, healthy grain-based salad -- like tabbouli, but different! I didn't have any chive-infused oil, so just finely chopped a green onion to mix in with the dressing, and it came out great.

Time 30m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 cups water
1 cup uncooked quinoa
1 cup fresh corn kernels (about 2 ears) or 15 1/4 ounces canned corn
1 cup halved cherry tomatoes
1/3 cup finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
2 tablespoons chive-infused oil or 2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 garlic clove, minced

Steps:

  • Combine water and quinoa in a medium saucepan; bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 10 minutes or until liquid is absorbed. Remove from heat; let stand 10 minutes. Fluff with a fork to separate and let cool a bit if time.
  • While quinoa is cooking, combine corn, tomatoes, and parsley in a medium bowl. In a small bowl, whisk together oil and remaining ingredients.
  • After quinoa has stood for 10 min., add to vegetable mixture, toss to combine, then drizzle dressing over it. Toss well to coat. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.
