It seems that I have a lot of favourites but that just goes to show how much I am loving raw foods. This meal is packed with flavour and possesses so much nutritional value. Great to serve as a side dish with dinner or use it as dinner on its own. Amazing…love it!

4 C Parsley, finely chopped
½ cup Quinoa, Sprouted
4 medium Lemons
½ cup Olive Oil
2 cucumbers, finely chopped
2 Tomatoes finely diced
2 tsp dried Mint
1 ½ tsp Celtic Salt
1 tsp fresh ground Black Pepper

Drain quinoa, and with your hands squeeze as much of the moisture out as possible. Put quinoa in a large bowl and place the cucumbers and parsley on top. In a blender, process lemon juice, olive oil, mint, salt, and pepper until smooth. Pour half the dressing over the quinoa and cucumbers and let marinate for ½ hour. Add the remaining dressing and toss the salad before serving.
