This salad makes a great appetizer and serving the salad in endive boats makes for a captivating presentation.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup uncooked quinoa, rinsed in a fine-mesh colander
- 2 cups water
- 1 tsp Chalice Spice Vegetable Broth Soup Mix
- 1 can (15 ounces) chickpeas, rinsed and drained, or 1 ½ cups cooked chickpeas
- 1 medium cucumber, seeded and chopped
- 1 medium red bell pepper, chopped
- ¾ cup chopped red onion (from 1 small red onion)
- 1 teaspoon of Chalice Spice Mexican Seasoning
- 1/4 cup of fresh chopped flat parsley
- ¼ cup olive oil
- ¼ cup lemon juice (from 2 to 3 lemons)
- 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
- 2 cloves garlic, pressed or minced
- Chalice Spice Himalayan Pink Salt and Peppercorn, , to taste
Preparation:
- Cook the quinoa by combining the rinsed quinoa, the water and Chalice Spice Vegetable Broth Powder in a medium saucepan.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, then decrease the heat to maintain a gentle simmer. Cook until the quinoa has absorbed all of the water, about 15 minutes, reducing heat as time goes on to maintain a gentle simmer. Remove from heat, cover, and let the quinoa rest for 5 minutes, to give it time to fluff up.
- In a large serving bowl, combine the chickpeas, cucumber, bell pepper, onion and parsley. Set aside.
- In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, vinegar, garlic and salt. Whisk until blended, then set aside.
- Once the quinoa is mostly cool, add it to the serving bowl, and drizzle the dressing on top. Toss until the mixture is thoroughly combined. Season with black pepper, to taste, and add an extra pinch of salt if necessary. For best flavour, let the salad rest for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
- Serve chilled or at room temperature.
Chef's Tip:
Since salad keeps well in the refrigerator, covered, for about 4 days, it is a great recipe to make ahead when you are planning for a large gathering.

Hello everyone,
I’d like to take this opportunity to express my heartfelt gratitude to Dr. Jakuta, a powerful spell caster who helped me reunite with my ex-lover after a painful breakup. For six long months, I thought our relationship was over, but Dr. Jakuta’s spell brought us back together.
Within 48 hours of the spell being cast, my ex reached out, apologizing for the hurt and promising to make amends. I was overjoyed and welcomed him back into my life.
If you’re facing similar relationship challenges or other difficulties, I highly recommend contacting Dr. Jakuta. His spell casting abilities are truly remarkable.

I realized that I had been defrauded of my entire life savings by a fraudulent cryptocurrency investment broker who refused to give me access to my money and insisted that I make additional payments before I could access it. This situation persisted for weeks until I had to withdraw my money for a medical emergency. I was devastated and my life was in ruins, but as I was looking for a way out, I saw a post about Recovery Nerd Agency, a crypto recovery company that has helped countless people access specific information and has had great success in the past recovering cryptocurrency, lost data, and stolen funds. After doing some research and becoming convinced of their service, I got in touch with the Recovery Nerd Agency, who helped me recover all of my stolen cryptocurrency. I sincerely appreciate their assistance and would like to suggest them for any services involving the recovery of cryptocurrency and other confidential information. Their email address is RECOVERYNERD@MAIL.COM. +61 (488) 893-280 on WhatsApp

Am so excited to share my testimony of a real spell caster who brought my husband back to me. My husband and I have been married for about 6yrs now. We were happily married with two kids, 3 months ago, I started to notice some strange behavior from him and a few weeks later I found out that my husband is seeing someone else. I became very worried and I needed help. I did all I could to save my marriage but it fail until a friend of mine told me about the wonderful work of Dr Jakuta I contacted him and he assured me that after 24hrs everything will return back to normal, to my greatest surprise my husband came back home and went on his knees was crying begging me for forgiveness I’m so happy right now. Thank you so much Dr Jakuta because ever since then everything has returned back to normal. one message to him today can change your life too for better. you can contact him via WhatsApp +2349161779461 or Email : doctorjakutaspellcaster24@gmail. com
