Qrazy Quinoa
Frankie Celenza
Some things that taste great don't make sense, like this quinoa made with corn, walnuts, grapefruit and more.
Ingredients
2 cups quinoa
1 bunch of scallions
1/2 container of cherry tomatoes, halved
1/4 cup walnuts, crushed
1 bulb of fennel, thinly sliced
1/4 cup corn off the cob
1/4 cup blueberries
Honey, to taste
1 grapefruit, juiced
1/2 grapefruit, cubed
1 orange, juiced
Extra virgin olive oil, to taste
Kosher salt, to taste
1 avocado, sliced
Instructions
Put the quinoa in a pot (with a lid) with 4 cups of water. Bring to a simmer, cover, lower the heat and cook as per the instructions on the bag.
In a frying pan, add some oil and blister all but 2 of the scallions, about 2 minutes on each side; salt to taste. When cool, slice them into 1-inch long pieces. Slice reserved 2 scallions and add all scallions to mixing bowl.
Prep all the other ingredients and put them in the mixing bowl. Combine with the cooked quinoa; add the fruit juices and olive oil and mix together. Salt to taste, and top with avocado.
