Anleitung
- 1.Rinse 120g of quinoa, then add to a pot with 240ml of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes until the water is absorbed. Fluff with a fork and set aside to cool slightly.

- 4.To make the tabbouleh, combine the cooled quinoa, diced tomato, cucumber, red onion, and the remaining chopped parsley and mint in a large bowl. Dress with the juice of half a lemon, 1 tbsp olive oil, salt, and pepper.
- 5.For the sauce, mix the Greek yogurt, the remaining minced garlic, all the chopped dill, and the juice of the other half of the lemon in a small bowl. Season with a pinch of salt.
