7
Add Step 1, chopped tomatoes & finely chopped red onions, half of the dried apricots and balsamic vinegar to the bowl and mix.

Tips & Note

●Quinoa is from South America, it contains lots of protein, iron, Vitamin B and minerals...it's well known as a superfood. Bulgar wheat is the whole wheat kernal, it's steamed then dried then cracked - it also has lots of fibre and minerals.
