Ingredients

> 3 tbsp olive oil
> 3 tbsp Dijon mustard
> 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
> 1 tbsp honey
> 1 large head broccoli (about 1 1/4 lbs)
> 1 (8.8 oz) pkg Nature's Promise ® Precooked Red Quinoa
> 1/2 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
> 1/4 cup chopped red onion

Steps

1
To a large bowl, add the oil, mustard, vinegar, and honey. Season with salt and pepper. Whisk together.
2
Heat a large pot of salted water to a boil on high. Peel the stem of the broccoli. Cut the broccoli into large florets (around 4 cups). Add broccoli to boiling water and cook until crisp-tender, 3–4 min. Drain in colander and rinse with cold water to stop broccoli from cooking. Drain well. Finely chop the broccoli into smaller pieces.
3
Microwave the quinoa according to package directions. Add to bowl with dressing mixture along with the cheese, red onion, and broccoli, tossing to combine. Season with salt and pepper.
