  • Bring quinoa and 2 cups water to a boil in a medium pot over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until quinoa is tender, about 15 minutes. Remove pot from heat and allow to stand, covered, for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork. Note: I like to cook the quinoa the day before and refrigerate so that it's already cold and prep time is lessened.
  • In a medium bowl whisk together mustard, lemon juice, white wine vinegar, garlic, red pepper flakes, salt and pepper. Gradually whisk in olive oil. Set aside.
