- Rinse the quinoa under cold water, and combine with 3 cups of water in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium and cook for 25-30 minutes. Stir occasionally, until quinoa is soft but not mushy.
- Meanwhile, chop the sun-dried tomatoes, Dandy® celery, and cucumber. Set aside until quinoa is cooked.
- Once quinoa is cooked and still warm, add the crumbled feta cheese and stir vigorously until well blended.
- Add the chopped vegetables, dill, lemon, olive oil, salt, and pepper to the quinoa feta mixture.
- Transfer to a serving dish and serve with Dandy® celery sticks and Dandy® radish coins.
Another great thing about this dip is it is vegetarian and gluten-free, so your party guests with certain dietary restrictions can dig in without fear!
Dandy® celery has fewer strings than other celery brands and is Naturally Sweeter & Crispier®, making it easier and more enjoyable to munch on. It also comes pre-washed, making your job a little bit easier.
