Cooking Instructions

Boil Quinoa (1/2 cup) in Water (3 cups) . Add some Salt (to taste) and Ground Black Pepper (to taste) . Boil the quinoa for 15 minutes on low heat until cooked.

Put Eggland's Best Classic Eggs (3) , juice from Lime (1/2) , Strong Mustard (1 tsp) , Salt (to taste) , and Ground Black Pepper (to taste) into the jar. Pour the Light Olive Oil (1 cup) on top. Let them sit for about 15 seconds so that it will settle in the jar.

Insert the stick blender at the bottom of the jar.

Turn the blender on and don’t move it around until about 25-30 seconds or until the bottom of the glass gets a thicker consistency.

Start moving around (and up) with the blender until it looks like mayonnaise.

When the quinoa has cooled down a little bit, then mix it with mayonnaise and Smoked Salmon (5.5 oz) .

Serve the quinoa and salmon mix with Lettuce (4 handfuls) and Cherry Tomatoes (5) . Add some extra Salt (to taste) and Ground Black Pepper (to taste) if needed. Enjoy!
