Ingredients

    Instructions

    Step 1

    Start by bringing a pot of water and quinoa to a lively boil, infusing it with a pinch of salt for flavor. Let the mixture simmer gently, then cover it to let the grains soak up all the liquid, usually around 15 minutes. Give it a little extra time off the heat, resting for another 5 minutes with the lid on.

    Step 2

    Next, after transferring the cooked quinoa onto a platter, spread it out thinly and pop it into the fridge to chill thoroughly, aiming for at least 15 minutes to get that perfect coolness.

    Step 3

    Meanwhile, in a spacious bowl, combine the vibrant mix of jicama, coconut shavings, juicy pineapple chunks, plump raisins, sweet onion bits, zesty lime zest, freshly squeezed lime juice, fragrant cilantro leaves, and a hint of jalapeno for some heat. Toss in the now chilled quinoa and blend everything together, seasoning the salad with a sprinkle of salt and pepper to taste.

    Step 4

    Wrap the bowl snugly with plastic and let it chill in the refrigerator until the flavors meld beautifully, typically around 30 minutes. Enjoy this refreshing and flavorful salad whenever you'd like!
