ingredients
- 1 cup quinoa
- 2 cups water
- 2 medium apples
- 1 cup blueberries (frozen is fine, just let them thaw)
- 1⁄2 cup walnuts
- 1 cup plain fat-free yogurt
- 1⁄2 tablespoon sugar
directions
- Dump quinoa and water into a pot and heat to boiling, then move heat to low, cover, and let sit for 15-20 minutes. Quinoa should be white, translucent, and soft. (Or cook it in a rice cooker the same way you'd cook rice.).
- Dice the apples and walnuts.
- Toss all ingredients in a large bowl and mix until even.
- Can serve immediately; however, I prefer it chilled.

I made this using plain Greek yogurt (that's what I had on hand) and frozen wild blueberries, which dyed the whole thing purple. It doesn't taste bad, but I probably wouldn't make it again.
