Quinoa, Red Rice & Pine Nut Picnic Salad
You don’t have to be on a picnic to have this, but it’s a really great one to pull out amidst the soggy sandwiches and packets of sausages. It tastes just as good warm, room temperature or cold, so it's a low maintenance make ahead treat that's full of goodness.
Really fresh and filling it’s a winner for lunchboxes as well.
Serve with roast chicken, salmon, tofu or halloumi for a great lunch.
Cook the rice and quinoa as the packet directs, all are slightly different, and when cooked drain and spread out in a large baking tray to cool, and let the steam evaporate without causing clumps.
Roast the pine nuts on a baking sheet for 6 minutes at 170 until just turning brown.
In a large bowl toss together all the ingredients, and pack into Tupperware without dressing.
Pour dressing contents into a jam jar and shake before using.
Drizzle dressing over to serve.

I just want to say Thank You to everyone who supported me through the years. My name is Manuel Franco, New Berlin, Wisconsin. My story of how I won the Powerball lottery of $768.4M is a bit of a tale. I have been playing Powerball tickets for 6 years now since I turned 18. I bought my first ticket on my 18 birthday. I was feeling very lucky that day because I had contacted Dr. Odunga Michael to help me with the winning Powerball numbers. I really had that great great feeling that I looked at the camera wanting to wink at it. I only did a tiny part of it and trusted him. He gave me the numbers after I played a couple other tickets along with it for $10. I checked my ticket after the winnings came online and saw the numbers were correct including the Power play. I screamed for about 10 minutes because it felt like a dream. I had won $768.4M. You can check my winning testimony with the lottery officials just with my name search. Thank you Dr Odunga. Well, his email is odungaspelltemple@gmail.com and you can also call or Whats-app him at +2348167159012 so you guys can contact him
