Pasta Salad with Quinoa

Salad full of flavors and textures that you can enjoy in every bite. This salad is my inspiration and I really liked the result. It contains quinoa, noodles, a combination of lettuces, apple, and cashews. The touch that cannot be missed is the fennel.

Servings

1/2 cups fideo pasta, #0 La Moderna®
3 sprigs fennel
1 apple
1/4 cups cashews
2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese, in slices
1/4 cups quinoa
1/2 cups water

Preparation

20 mins

5 mins

Low

For the quinoa: In a pot, heat the quinoa with water over high heat until it boils. Lower the flame and cook covered until the water is absorbed (about 10 min).
For the noodles: In another pot, boil enough water, add a little salt and the noodles. Cook over medium heat for a few minutes. Remove from heat, place in cold water to stop the cooking process, and drain.
For the lettuce: If it is already ready for consumption, it does not need to be disinfected; otherwise, that process is essential.
Cut the apple into not too thin wedges. If they are not going to be consumed immediately, they should be placed in a container with water and a few drops of lemon to prevent oxidation.
Cut the cashews in half.
For the dressing: In a small bowl, squeeze the juice of the lemons, add the finely chopped mint leaves, salt, pepper, and gradually the olive oil, mixing with a spoon. Set aside.
