Green and white bowl

Another quick weeknight supper.

1 cup white quinoa (this makes about twice as much as needed for leftovers)
alfalfa sprouts
1/2 an avocado, diced
~50g firm tofu, diced
1 spring onion, finely chopped
handful of sugarsnap peas
1/2 tbsp coriander, chopped
1/2 tbsp mint, chopped
1/2 tbsp sesame seeds, lightly toasted

1 quantity of tahini lime sauce

Boil the quinoa in 2 cups of water for about 12 min / til cooked / with a little bite left / water absorbed.

Steam the peas for 3 minutes, until green colour intensified but still with some crunch.  Refresh with cold water.  Chop into pieces of desired size.

Toast the sesame seeds in a frying pan, and prepare the sauce.

Mix the quinoa, sprouts, spring onion, herbs, peas, avocado and tofu together in a bowl and then add sauce and sesame seeds to taste.
