Instructions
- Cook the quinoa: First, rinse the quinoa in a fine mesh colander under running water.
- In a medium-sized pot, combine the rinsed quinoa and water.
- Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium heat, then reduce the heat to medium-low and gently simmer the quinoa until it has absorbed most or all of the water.
- Remove the quinoa from heat, cover the pot and let it rest for 5 minutes.
- Uncover the pot and fluff the quinoa with a fork. Set it aside to cool. (Here’s how to cook millet.)
- Meanwhile, make the peanut sauce: Whisk together the peanut butter and tamari until smooth (if this is difficult, microwave the mixture for up to 30 seconds to loosen it up). Add the remaining ingredients and whisk until smooth. If the mixture seems too thick to toss into the salad, whisk in a bit of water to loosen it up (I didn’t need to do this).
- In a large serving bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, shredded cabbage, carrot, snow peas, red bell pepper, cilantro, and green onion.
- Toss to combine, then pour in the peanut sauce. Toss again until everything it lightly coated in sauce. Taste, and if it doesn’t taste quite amazing yet, add a pinch of salt and toss again.
- Divide into individual bowls and garnish with peanuts.

Robust and crunchy- a complete meal. I recommend keeping the dressing separate so that you can have it last longer! Mild flavors- great for summer!

We’ve ordered this salad every week, we love it that much. I recommend placing the dressing on the and quinoa in separate containers for maximum freshness. Our chef today automatically did that and I thought BRILLIANT! We can enjoy it longer.

I think this dish wins the award of “highest repeat dish”. We love it for lunch. Sometimes we add chicken and sometimes we don’t.
