1/2 cup red quinoa, uncooked and rinsed
1 cup water
1 large mango
1 large handful spinach
1/2 cup sliced almonds
1/3 cup dried cranberries
2 green onions

For the dressing:

1 Tablespoon lime juice

Instructions

Combine the quinoa and water in a small pot on the stove. Bring to a bowl, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes or until all the water is absorbed.
