How it's done

Rinse the quinoa under hot water, then cook it in 2.5 times the amount of boiling water. Let it simmer for about 20 minutes, then allow it to sit and swell for another 5 minutes. Mix with the cooked (or roasted) chickpeas.

Peel and slice the onion. Wash and quarter the tomatoes. Dice the apple. Peel and slice the avocado. Wash the leafy greens and tear them into bite-sized pieces. Combine everything with the quinoa and chickpeas.

Whisk together olive oil, vinegar, mustard, maple syrup, salt, pepper, and the Sarsar spice mix to create the vinaigrette. Pour over the salad and toss gently.
