Fantastic! I added some chopped cucumbers for a little crunch. This will be a weekly staple for me. Thank you!

All of your quinoa recipies sound awesome for anybody looking for healthy and easy recipies; thanks so much for sharing them and your other great recipies! About how many people, please, would your other quinoa dishes — Quinoa Chicken Cherry Salad and Quinoa Edamame Feta Salad — serve? (This, I understand from a comment, serves about 4.) Thanks!

In reply to Rachael. Serving above is for 4. As far as the Citrus/fennel recipe you can eat more than the recommended serving if you're hungry. No protein from animal meat on the 3 day cleanse and some cleanses don't use any soy protein or egg white protein as mine has.

Sounds delicious! I apologize if I missed the info somehow, but how many servings is this recipe supposed to make? I’m thinking about doing the 3 day Detox and Cleanse and would definitely use this as a meal. Also, I was wondering if the nutritional info on the Citrus Fennel recipe was correct – 4 servings from 1 orange and 1 grapefruit? It seems like that would make for very small portions. Also, where is the protein coming from? Do fennel and citrus fruits contain protein? Thank you – GREAT site! I’m also a fan on FB, but a friend told me I MUST come right here to your website. I was diagnosed with Celiac Disease last summer so your recipes are perfect for me! Thanks so much for all you share!

Thank you…Thank you…Thank you! Besides your salad sounding wonderful (love ’em tremendously) you also gave me an awesome idea. I had a Tabouleh recipe published in Prevention Magazine in the 90’s but (of course) contained bulghur wheat. I went off of wheat 6/3/12 so no salad that I still loved and made semi-regularly. Had thought about a substitution now & then but Quinoa had just not come to mind. This will be a perfect substitution. So, today I got a 2 for 1!

In reply to Bonnie. No cooking needed for canned, I just drained and rinsed.

Do canned chickpeas need cooked? Or what kind are you using ?

Oh and I also cooked my quinoa with turmeric – I always do and recommend it!

Eating this right now – so, so good! I did not have chickpeas so I subtituted edamame.

I made this last night- first time ever using quinoa- and had it for lunch today. It was easy to make, delicious, and very filling! Love it!

In reply to Sandy. As it is mixed in with lemon juice it shouldn't look too brown by the next day but it is better if you wait to dress it until you want to eat it.
