Quinoa salad with superfoods

Delicious salad with buckwheat quinoa and superfoods.

Our salad is filling and of high biological value as it contains:
✔ The essential amino acids we get from quinoa. Amino acids are the building blocks we need for protein synthesis.
✔ Buckwheat, with its detoxifying properties, ensures ideal sugar levels.
✔ Goji berries are a valuable source of iron and antioxidants.
✔ Cranberries will boost urinary tract health.
✔ Blueberries for good vision and cell anti-aging.
✔ Nuts are an ideal source of omega-3-omega-6 fats for effective hydration and lubrication of tissues.
✔ Fresh herbs and seasonal vegetables that will supply us with vitamins, minerals and vital energy. The detailed recipe is below.

For 4 servings we will need:

• 1 cup tricolor quinoa
• 1/3 cup buckwheat
• 1/2 cup goji berries
• 1/2 cup cranberries
• 1/4 blueberries
• 1 handful of sunflower seeds/pumpkin seeds
• Anise
• Fresh coriander
• Rocket
• 3-4 lettuce hearts
• Thyme
• Turmeric powder
• Ginger
• Olive oil
• Salt

Implementation:

In a saucepan, boil the quinoa and buckwheat with a little salt. When the contents are sufficiently soft, strain and then turn off the heat. Then, pour the nuts, berries and herbs into the non-stick pan and start working them at medium temperature. At the same time, add the turmeric, ginger, thyme and stir until they take on color and release their aroma. When they are well cooked, add the quinoa, buckwheat and finally the olive oil. Continue to cook at a low temperature until all the ingredients bind together. When the mixture is ready, turn off the heat and add the fresh lettuce hearts. The delicious superfood salad contains all six flavors - sweet, salty, bitter, spicy, sour, astringent - and therefore balances all 3 doshas, ​​enhancing digestive fire and smooth metabolism.

It can be enjoyed at any time of the day, as an accompaniment to lunch or as the main course of our dinner.
