Salade de Quinoa Grillé aux Légumes Croquants

1.In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed quinoa and water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes or until the quinoa is fluffy and the water is absorbed. Remove from heat and let it cool.

2.While the quinoa is cooling, preheat your Ninja air fryer to 375°F (190°C).

3.Spread the cooled quinoa evenly in the air fryer basket. Air fry for 8-10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until the quinoa is crispy and slightly golden. Remove from the air fryer and let it cool further.

4.In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced red and yellow bell peppers, cucumber, cherry tomatoes, and red onion.

5.In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.

6.Add the crispy quinoa to the bowl of vegetables and pour the dressing over the top. Toss gently to combine all the ingredients evenly.

7.Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
