This is our all-time favourite. The flavours are exquisite together. If we have people coming over for a BBQ, this will always be on the table. It's inexpensive to make when you have those ingredients in the pantry, and comes together very quickly.

Fantastic, on saturday i was on a brunch where they cooked all with quinoa because quinoa is not so popular in germany and so i had all the ingredients for this recipe at home. Delicious.
