Wow, utterly fantastic! I had some quinoa in my pantry for a while and wanted to use it. Made this recipe and was not disappointed. The mustard and lime are great in it. I used green lentils. Might be grazing on this one all summer....

Loved this recipe. Toasted the quinoa in dry skillet before rinsing to enhance it's nutty taste. Also cooked on stove top using chicken broth instead of water...Delicious warm and again cold the next day. When serving cold, added cucumber cubes and cherry tomato halves...Great!

this is tasty, definitely a side dish though if you make it as is.

This is one of my new favorite salads. It is light and healthy and has a great flavor. Its also very easy to make and doesn't require too many ingredients that you don't already have on hand. The recipe is easy to follow and leftovers are as good as the initial preparation. My only alteration is that I cook the Quinoa in low-sodium chicken broth to give it a little extra flavor.

The dish was delicious. I think this is the best recipe for quinoa. A good blend of ingredient.
I have made it twice and I love it.

YUMMY!. Cooked quinoa in rice cooker-2 parts water, 1 part quinoa, and it came out perfect, no fuss.

Yummy! I added lemon zest instead of lime and also halved grape tomatoes. I enjoyed the leftovers with drained, canned tuna. Next time I will cook the quinoa on the stove though. The microwave didn't do it for me.

This dish did not work for me. The lentils cooked for an hour and still were more than al dente. Two scallions were definitely not enough. Like some other reviewers I added one rib of celery and 1/3 red bell pepper finely diced to add color and crunch, which probably was not necessary as the grains were crunchy. I also think finely minced garlic, rather than garlic powder would have flavored the salad more. The lime rind saved the day. I also added the juice of the lime for a little more moisture.

I love this recipe and have made it many times. Today I was out of lime, so I zested an orange into the dressing, and it was delicious!

Amazing! I have struggled to "create" with either lentils or quinoa. So, when I saw both being addressed in this recipe, I was eager to try it. My entire family loved it. My husband was psyched for the protein and my six-year-olds were inhaling it. Thank you for expanding my repertoire!
