Instructions
- To cook the quinoa: Combine the rinsed quinoa and the water 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 15mins.
- 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.
- Heat olive oil in pan, add ginger in it and cook for about minute on medium flame.
- Add broccoli, red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper and capsicum. Saute for minute on high flame. Switch off the flame.
- Once the quinoa is mostly cool, add it to the serving bowl, and drizzle the honey on top.
- Add cooked veggies, iceberg, corn kernels and pomegranate. Toss until the mixture is thoroughly combined. Season with black pepper, to taste, and add an extra pinch of salt if necessary.
- For best flavor, let the salad rest for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
