Lemony Quinoa with Chickpeas and Huckleberries Recipe
Recipe by: ALZ
"There are not nearly enough huckleberries on this website, so here is one for the huckleberry lovers out there. Blueberries could also be substituted. Can be served hot or at room temperature."
1Bring water and quinoa to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until quinoa is soft and water has been absorbed, about 25 minutes.
2Heat a small skillet over medium heat; toast sunflower kernels in hot skillet until fragrant, 3 to 5 minutes.
3Transfer quinoa to a large bowl and fluff with a fork; add sunflower kernels, chickpeas, huckleberries, carrot, onion, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Gently stir the salad until thoroughly mixed; season with salt and pepper.
