1) Rinse the quinoa and place in a dish or pan large enough to cover with 450ml water.
2) Add the water and 1/2 vegetable stock cube.
3) Microwave or simmer on the hob for 15-20 mins or until the water has completely absorbed and the quinoa is soft. Add more water if needed.
4) Meanwhile prepare the raw food salad. Grate the carrot, finely slice the mushrooms and red onion. Chop the rest of the vegetables quite finely (eg approx 1-1.5cm chunks).
5) Add all the vegetables into a large dish.
6) Cut the halloumi (or light halloumi) into 2cm cubes and mix into the raw vegetables.
7) When the quinoa is cooked and has cooled down, fluff it up and add into the mixed salad.
8) Finally add the pumpkin seeds, dried cranberries and chopped (raw) cashews to the mix.
9) Serve and enjoy!
